[pchelpers] Re: can't delete

I agree with John but think you should make the change when it feels
right, not under pressure. Here's the solution to your problem, Billy:

Why can't I delete messages inside OE?

That can happen if the Deleted Items folder is damaged. Move all
messages you might want to keep out of the Deleted Items folder and into
another mail folder you create. Close OE, then delete the file Deleted
Items.dbx in your Identity's store folder. OE will create a new one when
you re-open OE.

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
