Deleting Emails

The default action when deleting a message via the webmail interface is to move the message into the Trash folder. Messages must be deleted from the Deleted Items before space is freed up from your mailbox account. The steps below explain how this can be done.

The deletion of messages from the Deleted Items folder can be done automatically upon logging out of webmail.
