Below are the steps to 'Delete' an unwanted email.
Once you are living at an address for a period of time solicitors are bound to add your address to their mailing list. The same goes for email. After you've used your email address for awhile you are bound to receive unwanted Junk Mail. The following steps describe how to delete JunkMail and other unwanted mails from Outlook Express.
- To open Outlook Express begin by clicking 'START', 'PROGRAMS', 'OUTLOOK EXPRESS' ( * Depending on your version of windows ie: win95., win98, WinXP, you may have to find Outlook Express elsewhere in the START menu)
- Click on 'INBOX' in the Folder Tree Pane1
- Now click on the appropriate email that you would like to delete to on the right hand side in the Message List (Folder List)2
- Now click the 'DELETE' button on the main toolbar up top. The mail has now been removed from your 'Inbox'.
NOTE: A point you will need to understand is that the mail has not completely been removed off your system just yet.
- Click on 'DELETED ITEMS' in the Folder Tree Pane1
Here you will find all mail you've recently deleted. In order to permantly delete mails you must 'Right-Click' on 'DELETED ITEMS' in the Folder Tree Pane1, and in the popup menu choose 'EMPTY DELETED ITEMS FOLDER'.
- A popup box will appear confirming that you want to delete these items; choose 'YES'
Now you have completely removed the chosen mail from your system.
