Apparently this was the problem... Erin Hello Erin, Your last 'connection' to my.utoronto.ca was somewhat "stuck" and required that its process be terminated.

A UTORmail administrator has terminated or disconnected your previous login so you should now be able to purge messages marked for deletion again.
