[QUOTE="RadDave, post: 1941711, member: 234411"] Hi [B]All[/B] - I'm on Apple Mail in Sonoma and trying to rid myself of old emails (e.g. in the Sent folders) on my Yahoo account (signing in on a browser) and on my Mac laptop - on the latter in Mail, I came across the 'Recovered Messages' mailbox (first pic below - [URL='https://support.apple.com/guide/mail/messages-a-recovered-mailbox-mlhla3954c9a/mac']LINK[/URL]) - looking in this mailbox (2nd pic) I have 2,693 messages dating back to 2016 (most of these were likely deleted, so I don't want to really move them) - rebuilding that mailbox did nothing - can I simply delete these inside that mailbox and not expect them to be repopulated in some fashion? Thanks for comments and help. Dave . [ATTACH type="full"]39329[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]39330[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
