Eudora Email - Deleting Old Messages
Hi,
I use Eudora Pro myself, and as you know, when you delete a message from your Inbox, it's immediately transferred to your Trash mailbox. You can switch to that one pretty easily to see what's in it. To delete the contents, click on Special in the menu bar, and then Empty Trash.
The contents of the trash mailbox are kept tracked of using two files: trash.mbx, and trash.toc (Both located in your Eudora install directory). As your mailbox grows, so does both files. When you 'Empty Trash', these files shrink in way.
As far as I know, and Eudora's web site might contradict me, once you empty the trash mailbox, they're as good as gone.
Cheers,
Richard |
