My work around was to create subfolders such as 2004, 2005, 2006 etc and move mail from those dates to the respective folder. Then from folder click on Expunge.
My original hesitation in doing this was that i worried that moving items to a sub-folder and 'expunging' them, would delete them from the server (like in IMAP). Since i'm using pop3 and have the setting to leave a copy on the server... it appears to not mess things up on the server, but only make the change locally. -- 2 gb max inbox https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197290 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
