E63 - CANNOT DELETE EMAIL FOLDER

Updated software - email account - email on 3 crashed.
Havent been able to find email on 3 app so have downloaded nokia email - previous email folder is still showing in the messaging folder.
Any ideas how to delete?
(menu - commucation - messaging - email does not work as only edit & help are options...)

Padlocks simply indicate accounts that use secured connections, with TLS or SSL.
I don't understand what you were trying to achieve by copying the old profile in; profiles are mutually exclusive and you can access only one at a time within a single instance of Thunderbird. You generally have to jump through hoops to use multiple profiles.
I get the impression that you've actually copied bits of one profile over another, and I have no experience of what happens when you do that. To blend bits of different profiles together, I'd import mailbox files using
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/importexporttools/
but I would also recognize that these are mail stores and not working accounts, so would necessarily import into Local Folders (since imported messages don't intrinsically "belong" to any specific email account.) You can of course drag-and-drop into the preferred account folders after the fact.
The prefs.js file actually stores the details for working accounts, and if this isn't consistent with copied-in account folders then it's possible that Thunderbird doesn't "know" where to find things.
Thunderbird's profiles system doesn't lend itself to merging. :-(
You can trivially set up an entirely new profile, or less trivially, insert a complete old profile in place of a new one. Combining two or more is usually painful.
Incidentally, I'm using LMDE here, but have always taken care to transplant entire profiles and have never experienced the inabilty to delete. Having said that, the inabilty to delete messages in Thunderbird is one of those regular complaints that pops up here every now and then. It seems to affect all platforms, so I don't think you being on Linux is of any particular relevance.

  • I cannot delete emails on iphone 5

    I cannot delete emails on my iphone5. I do not have the delete button visable either while trying to delete on email on batch.

    Not clear what you are asking,  There is no "batch" delete option for the Inbox - all emails have to be deleted individually.  Only the Trash folder has a "Delete All" button shown after touching "Edit"
    To delete individual emails, swipe finger across the preview and "Delete" will show, or select "Edit" on top right and select each one you want to delete.

  • Cannot delete emails in Thunderbird

    I cannot delete emails from thunderbird. The client gives me an error "The current operation on 'inbox' did not succeed. The mailserver for [MYACCOUNT] responded: [TRYCREATE] The requested item could not be found." What does this mean? This is using IMAP FYI.

    Ask Apple to re-enable it. I had an unauthorized purchase last October. They disabled my account until the problem was solved. However, I asked them to reopen it, and they just asked me to provide some security information (billing address, a recent purchase you made, etc.), and then they re-enabled it.

  • I cannot delete emails I have a iphone 3GS running IOS 6.0.1

    I cannot delete emails, I have an iphone 3GS runningIOS 6.0.1. I tap edit and the red circle appears, but no delete rectangle or dustbin appears

    AT&T does not issue unlock codes for iPhones.  I had to think a minute, because I never had a 3GS myself, and thought it might have been different for them, but my daughter had one, and the unlock process is the same as for the 4.  After AT&T approves the unlock (which means the contract has been fulfilled), they notify Apple.  AT&T then sends the phone's owner an email detailing the process to unlock the phone, which consists of backing up the data, then restoring the phone as new in iTunes (which is where the unlock comes in), then restoring the data backup and then syncing.  I went through this to unlock my AT&T iPhone 4.  SO, I'm not sure what the unlock code business is about, except that it doesn't sound legit.

  • Cannot delete emails: no circle to check for delete

    More often than not I cannot delete emails from my iPhone.  When I choose edit no circle appears to allow me to delete emails.
    Any advice is appreicated.

    You can also delete the messages by swiping your finger to the right and the delete button should appear. However, if the way to delete is not appearing when you touch the edit button, you need to try some troubleshooting steps.
    First, power the iPhone off/on. See if that fixes it.
    If not, then reset the iPhone. Do this by holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo, then release. After the iPhone restarts, try again.
    If not, then a restore is next. Restore from a backup in iTunes. If no better, then restore as a new iPhone.
    The reset has no affect on your data. A restore from backup does not affect data, however restoring as a new phone will delete everything off the phone. You will have to resync all of your data back to the phone.

  • Cannot delete emails

    Hi,
    I sent some emails with large attachments (up to 10MB) copied to me and one of them appears in the inbox in a pale orange colour. I cannot delete these large messages nor any other messgaes. Every time I delete a message, it reappears back.
    I cannot receive email messages into my mail account on my computer, but I can see new emails on my iphone. I have 6 email messages that I can read on my iphone that I haven't rec'd on my computer.
    I am using gmail as my email server. I also tried going into my gmail webmail and deleting the large emails but they keep appearing back.
    In addition, my Mail keeps crashing.
    Thanks,
    Aarti

  • I cannot delete emails on my new i pad

    I cannot figure out how to delete emails from my new Ipad. i continue to get a message "unable to move message"

    Try going into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Then select the account on the right-hand side of that screen, select Account, then Advanced, Deleted Mailbox, and under On The Server tap the 'Trash' folder (or whatever it is called by your provider) so that it gets a tick against it - then come out of that series of popups by tapping on the relevant buttons at the top of them and then see if you can delete emails.

  • Cannot Delete Email Messages after Update

    After installing the newest OS update I cannot delete my email messages using the delete keyboard button or using the onscreen options.  The delete screen does open up but the delete option is greyed out.  I am able to delete messages by using select more and then delete.
    Solved!

    I have the same problem affecting 3 different email accounts on my q10, one of which is a corporate account requiring IT support to reinstall. This solution is not practical for me. Any better ideas? I knew I shouldn't have done the upgrade. Another reason to regret not switching to an iPhone!

  • Cannot delete email

    After having my phone replace everything was restored and fine except for being able to delete emails.  I am getting a message saying items cannot be transferred to the trash.  Any ideas?

    OK, maybe 'extreme' was a poor choice of words, but it is a bit of a hassle in our environment since we are using smart cards for log ons to our Exchange server. This means the administrator (me!) has to assist the user in re-creating the account with information from the card that is normally scanned in. I just hope this doesn't become an ongoing problem. Is anyone at Apple looking into the cause of this glitch?

  • Cannot delete emails in Mail

    Hey everyone, since I upgraded to Mavericks I just cannot delete the emails I need. Some advices say to delete the account and create the same again, but it does not work in my case. Could you help me please? Thank you very much

    This does not answer/solve the OP's question/problem as they would still have to select each email individually before selecting the "delete all" button. In the end this the same as selecting "delete" on each message individiually.
    There is no practical way to do what the OP wants.
