    Maybe if you ask a question instead of making a statement. Nobody here is psychic. What exactly is the problem?

    Sorry, put problem in the Title. I can only delete some of my emails. Can't figure why some will not delete.

    Anyone else run into this problem?

    Somebody missed the point. Are you using a web service? Outlook Express? Thunderbird? Windows? OSX? Linux?

    Saying "I can't delete email" is like saying "My car won't start". And? We need details before we can help. Operating system, what program you're using, who provides your email, how are you trying to delete it, what happens, do you get an error message, etc.

    //edit: OK, Outlook Express. Are you just hitting the delete key? What happens when you try to delete it?

    Nothing happens, the delete button doesn't work, right clicking won't delete, nor can I move the email to a delete folder.

    Does this continue to happen after restarting Outlook and/or restarting the computer?

    Yes. I have restarted both several times, no change in the problem.
    I even cleared out all old deleted files which helped a little (allowed me to delete some emails), but several emails will not delete. I used the delete button with no luck, as well as right cllcking the email to delete to move to another folder, but will not do either.
