deleting unwanted e-mail
I have several emails that are sitting in my junk file that I am unable to delete. Several.. in the past..I was able to delete after moving them to another file. Not these. Immovable. Any suggestions on how to delete these?

Which mail software do you use? I use Outlook and I have worked around the problem by moving them to another folder then deleting.

I cannot move these to another folder, and then delete them. THAT used to work...but not on these.

What happens if you right click on one? Does a menu come up?

What email program are you using? Sounds like it's corrupted.

Windows Live Mail Cannot Delete Message
Delete Emails Stuck in the Windows Live Mail Outbox Click Work offline in the toolbar. ... Open the Outbox folder. ... Click on the message you want to delete and keep the mouse button pressed. Holding down the Ctrl key as well, drag the message to the Drafts folder for an account or Storage folders. |

I tried that one and trashed it. I have been using Thunderbird for quite a while and like it a lot better. Winderz Live email is a pain in the butt...
