Deleting Inbox Messages

6 replies · 1,870 views · Started 24 January 2003

Accumlated a ton of messages. Is there anyway of clearing the inbox besides manually deleting the messages 1 by 1?

Press and hold 'ABC' and the joystick up&down will allow you to select multipule entries, Delete with 'C' then. 😊

Problem is the messages still appear in my phone's inbox.

I have selected delete from phone only as I want to leave them on the server for downloading later from my PC, but don't want them staying in my phone's Inbox 😊

The headers from your emails will still appear in the relevant inbox, but the message body is deleted. The only way to remove the headers is for the server to be clear when you log your phone on to check for emails, it will remove any that aren't on the server and download headers for new ones. So you will need to clear your server by collecting your emails with your PC.
I am waiting to do this, I haven't been near my PC for over a month, I have been deleting spam from the server on my phone but I still have approximately 150 headers on there 😞
