'Unknown error has occurred' - try to delete messages

Keep getting 'Unknown error has occurred' when try to delete messages out of
deleted box. I already deleted the mail that I could delete individually. Now
I'm left with a bunch of deleted mail that can't be permanently deleted. HELP!
Thanks,
Betty

Hi Betty,

Read the top portion at this link and look at the section for "Deleted Items Folder". If that doesn't help you, then do the "To Reset Windows Mail" section. It will get rid of it for you.

If the other solutions don't appeal to you, you can simply upgrade
to Windows Live Mail:

Hi Joan,

This will fix your problem:
Read the "First" section in this tutorial about antivirus programs to help prevent this from happening again, then install the KB941090 Microsoft Update in the "Second" section to fix the stuck message problem.

Re: 'Unknown error has occurred' - try to delete messages

The windows patch seems to have worked... so far. I installed the patch and
it now seems to delete all messages as it should. We'll see what happens over
time.

Thanks for the tip. (now to fix theblank reply/attachment windows... sigh)
