I can't delete the message stored in deleted items and junk mail

Hello,

Please help me. I can't delete the message stored in deleted items and junk
email. It says the following:

Message could not be displayed
Windows Mail encountered an unexpected problem while displaying this
message. Check your computer for low memory or low disk space and try again.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Windows Mail

The only problem is that I have 30 GB free space on my /:C , so, I don't
understand why it wont let me delete those messages.


Thank you

Re: I can't delete the message stored in deleted items and junk mail

Could be due to one or two reasons:
1) Your database may be corrupted. Try running the various repair
functions in the WMUtil program: http://www.oehelp.com/WMUtil

2) Which antivirus are you running? Some of them cause problems
with Windows Mail over time.

I already had WMUtil but it doesn't erase the massages stored in deleted and
junk email. I tried and it didn't work out.

I have Avira antivirus.

Ths problem persist for 3 months now.

Make sure you have Vista SP1 or SP2 installed and then see if you can delete
them. Check Windows Update.

In that case your best solution is to upgrade to Windows Live Mail:
