[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1902121, member: 396914"] Well, if you want to experiment, start with a good backup. Mail is part of the OS itself and if you bypass it to delete anything related to it you might break the OS and find the Mac unusable until you reinstall the OS. And that could lead to data loss. So, make a backup and make sure it's good before trying anything anyone may suggest. Here is an older thread at the Apple discussion forum about how to do what you are asking. I have no idea if it works or not. It's 7 years old. You haven't mentioned the version of macOS, so whether or not the same sequence will work is unknown. It's all your risk.
