Trash on email

[bojowaggie]

Hello all.
I have this issue. When i go look at my folder for normal email (NOT GMAIL)
I have an exchange account, and I see that there are 3200+ unread email in my trash folder on my D1, how can I delete them all, I am using the native email app. I have also tried emptying the trash folder on my computer and I still can not get them to delete on the phone.

I don't really want to go through and check mark 3200+ messages and delete them.
There has to be a better way of doing this?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Deleting them from your computer, then refreshing the trash folder doesn't do it?

Yup tried that and didn't work..

Hmmm... Ooh...

Try clearing the data/cache for Email? It should resync everything BUT what isn't on the server... in theory.

If you lose something, it isn't my fault!!!

Yea tried that too, and didn't do anything.. HMM...

 

[pstinger]

That worked for me, hmm. Did it make you add the account again?

 

[bojowaggie]

Do you mean remove the account?
That was my last choice...

What do you mean by clearing cache??

Cleared data there; it removes the account, though.

same issue. There should be a delete trash check mark in settings but it's not. clearing data in manage apps probably works but it clears the account. Clearing Cache does nothing

I never found a way. The native app has the same problem for POP accounts, which is why I moved to K-9 Mail.
