E71 - How do I delete email headers?

I've managed to synch over 10,000 emails to my E71 and it's really struggling. The "Delete" menu only appears to have two options
a) delete on phone and server and
b) delete on phone only (header remains)
I don't want to delete the emails on the server, I want to delete them on the phone but I don't want 10,000 headers in my inbox either.
Is there a way?
Solved!

People, stop farting around with the s60 email client and get a proper rich client experience with Profimail!
Be careful how you go about deleting emails from your phone!
If you use POP, then you MAYBE/CAN delete from the phone + server as POP email is not a centralised system, meaning whatever changes you make on your client, maynot be reflected back on the server - different email POP clients behave differently so it's a matter of testing.
If you use IMAP, then deleting from the phone + sever WILL DEFINITELY delete your email from the phone & sever because IMAP is a centralised system. Whatever changes you make on your client should get reflected back onto the IMAP server in realtime.
The NEW Nokia Email program (dec 08) is a far better improvement than the previous version, it now supports IMAP & IMAP folders, so give that a go if you don't like the native s60 email application, and too much of a scrooge to spend money on 3rd party applications.
However, keep in mind that eventually Nokia will look at making people 'subscribe' to the Nokia email service, which is an annual cost over & above what you already pay each month/year for your phone bill.
With profimail, it is a one-off cost and the product is so matured that it sh*ts all over BOTH Nokia email programs.
Don't get me wrong, I like Nokia, NO, I LOVE NOKIA. If Nokia were a woman I would steal her a ferrari and ask her to marry me, but it's not..... and Profimail is a far better application by far. The best email client i've used on a mobile device.

  • How do I delete emails without having to open them please? I have a Mac Air. Using my previous PC I could delete emails without opening but I don't seem to be getting this option on the Mac. Thanks.

    I am new to using a Mac. How do I delete emails without opening them? Using my old PC it was possible to delete suspect emails prior to opening them, however I don't seem to be given this option. If I click on a message it opens straight away and I am worried about opening emails when I don't know where they are from. Thanks

    All I can suggest is that you open that file on the MBA and save it as a new file, then see if you can open the new one on the iMac.

  • How do I delete emails? When I try to delete a message comes up saying unable to move to trash.

    How do I delete emails? When I try to delete a message comes up saying unable to move to trash.

    There are a few things that you could try. First try turning the account off and on : Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , then tap the account on the right, slide Mail to 'off', exit settings and go back into the Mail app, and then go back to Settings and slide Mail back to 'on'
    If that doesn't work then try closing the Mail app via the taskbar : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    And if the above don't work then 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 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.

    how do I delete email from my iPad and iPhone without deleting it on my laptop. I'm trying to free up space.

    It would depend on the type of mail account you are using. If you have an IMAP or Exchange account deleting mail from one client is going to sync to the other clients. You cannot remove from one device and not the others. POP mail however, does allow one to delete mail from one client and it remain on the other clients. Because POP mail is downloaded to the individual clients, whereas mail in IMAP and Exchange resides on the server, and is just viewed on the individual machines.

  • How do I delete email messages so that they stop "bouncing" back and forth between my devices?

    How do I delete email messages so that they stop "bouncing" back and forth between my Macbook, ipad, and iphone?

    Hi ST,
    The first screen shot is the left (main) screen after I moved CS6 to the right screen (second screen shot). As you can see the CS6 panels are in front of MS Word. If I click in the Word document they go behind Word. If I switch over to on the right screen the panels reappear but in front of Word again. So I either have to switch back and forth between the two screens if I want to work in CS6 or manually movee the panels over to the Right Screen. It is rather awkward to have to do that. Make sense?
    Left (Main Screen)
    Right Screen

  • How do I delete email from iPhone without deleting them from my Mac

    How do I delete email from iPhone without deleting them from my Mac?

    To remove a photo from iPhoto and your Mac:
    Put it in the iPhoto Trash, then enpty it. Then empty the system trash as well
    If you want to remove a photo from iPhoto but keep it on your Mac:
    First Export the file from iPhoto (File -> Export) to whereever you want it and then go through the steps above.
    Confusion arises as the notion that you would want to remove a pic from iPhoto but keep it doesn't make a whole lot of sense. It's like saying I want to remove one address from Address Book, but still keep it on my Mac. The point of iPhoto and such apps is that they are used to manage your photos. Anything that you need to do with the pics cn be done either with or via iPhoto.
