Can't Empty "Deleted Items" folder

Whenever I right click on the "Deleted Items" folder and click on Empty
Deleted Items Folder, nothing happens. It used to work but now it doesn't.
If I click on a message and click delete in the folder. I get a message that
says " unknown error.
Anyone know how to fix this? About ready to reinstall operating system.
Thanks,

Don't reinstall Vista just because Windows Mail is buggy.
Just upgrade to Windows Live Mail:
