[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1447705, member: 46727"] Yeah, unfortunately Google's directions and instructions can be somewhat confusing. What you can try is choose to view as many of your stored messages at one time as you can. I have mine set to show 100 messages at a time. Place an "X" in the "select" box and 100 messages will be flagged at a time. Then select the garbage pail and those messages will be sent to the trash. You have to do the same thing 100 messages at a time. It can get tedious if you have a large number of email messages to go through. That's why it's important to keep up with it. For now you'll just have to bite the bullet and go through them all until they're removed otherwise they will download to Mail. You probably don't want to delete your messages by date in case there are some that you wish to save. [/QUOTE]
