Can't delete emails

I can not delete an email that is in my Inbox, when I try to delete it, an
unknown error has occurred message comes up. How can I delete this email?

Thanks,
cbutler

Hi cbutler,

Read the top portion at this link. If you do not want to switch to Windows Live Mail, then do the "To Reset Windows Mail" section. It'll get you going again.

Re: Can't delete emails

Either ignore it for now (until MS comes out with an official fix),
or else upgrade to Windows Live Mail:

Mail servers don't connect to your pc.
Your PC does the work and the server responds.

Install WLM on your PC then set up the email account...
Tools > Accounts > etc.
with server details that Bigpond supplied you in their documentation
or on their website support pages.

Re: Can't delete emails

Like Julian says.
You don't need any ISP software.
POP mail uses a universal protocol that is not ISP-specific.

Re: Can't delete emails

Try this Microsoft fix:

http://support.microsoft.com/default...b/941090/en-us

It also works for messages stuck in other than the outbox.
