How can I delete an email on my iMac without opening it - I know it contains a virus

I have an email account on my 2013 iMac - how can I delete an email on the account without opening it - I know from the subject that it is a virus

It does not have a virus attached and unless you open whatever (if anything) is attached or linked to the email nothing can happen.
So you can select and delete it and nothing will happen
Although, if you never select it nothing will happen.
Your choice.

  • How can I delete an email on my phone without it deleting the email on my company exchange server?

    How can I delete an email on my phone without it deleting the email on my company's exchange server?  Every time I delete an email on the phone, the email is placed in the Deleted folder in my Outlook email.

    Blackberry ran all your email through its own email servers. This gave you some features that you otherwise would not have had. However, it also left you vulnerable to BB's service outages.

  • How can I delete previous owners ID from iMac without original media?

    Hi there,
    Hope someone can help me as I'm relatively clueless!
    We have purchased a 2nd hand iMac from Amazon and have been trying to download from the Mac App Store, we both have Apple IDs but when we are trying to download/purchase an app that was previously downloaded by the last owner it is only giving us the option to Accept and not purchase, after signing in it then gives us the error message that it has already been downloaded to the previous ID and if we want to download it we need to re-purchase it, which is fine.
    So my question is how do we do this? we did not get any original media in the box so cannot factory reset and redownload.
    Fingers crossed someone has the answer as I'm itching to get on and use the machine!!
    Thank you in advance,
    Vicky.

    Hi Vicky ...
    Since this is a 2nd hand iMac, you can reformat the drive by using Lion Recovery
    That will delete all the personal data from the previous owner so you can start fresh from factory settings.
    we did not get any original media in the box so cannot factory reset and redownload.
    New Macs do not come with optical media.

  • I have an ipad 2 and I noticed I have over 3000 emails in All Mail. I want to know how can I delete these emails. It looks like you can only do it one at a time. It will take me forever. Please help me.

    You can only delete them one at a time on the iPad. If you have an IMAP email account, go to your email in on the server using a web browser and select as many as you can at a time and delete them that way. That action will be reflected on the iPad. In IMAP - whatever you do on one device syncs across all devices. If you have POP email - start deleting one at a time.

  • How can I delete an email personality that I no longer use

    I have been accessing several different email addresses that I no longer use. How can I delete those email personalities from Thunderbird

    Looks like you already found this answer but to save another volunteer from answering again and for future searches here is how to remove an old email account.

    From the Menu Bar select Tools-Account Settings
    Select the account
    Account Actions-Remove Account

  • How can I delete multiple emails on my Samsung Stratosphere at once?

    How can I delete multiple emails on my Samsung Stratosphere at once? I use AOL and when I delete the emails off of my computer, they do not delete from my phone. So I have hundreds of unwanted messages showing on my phone but I have not found an option to delete all messages, only individually. I would also like to be able to clear the messages from my phone without them deleting from my computer. This was super easy with my blackberry and I have not found anything similar on this phone.

    When I go to the trash folder on my Stratosphere, I can check individual emails and then hit "Menu" and "Delete", but if I hit the "Menu" button before selecting any e-mails, then I see the "Delete all" button, but it's greyed out, so I cannot select it.  There's also a "Restore All" button next to the "Delete all" button, and it's also greyed out.  So, currently the only way I can delete the 100's of e-mails in my trash is to put a check mark next to each one, which is painful.  Anybody else have this problem or know of a solution?

    I bought a used iPhone and found him email iCloud does not affect me so how can I deleted this email in order to use the device freely and privacy
    help me please

    You can't. Return the phone for a refund, if you can, because without the previous owner's Apple ID/Password, you will not be able to re-activate the phone. It will be useless to you.
    Apple can't/won't help you with this.

  • How can i delete a picture from camera roll without deleting everywhere

    how can i delete a picture in camera roll without deleting everywhere

    You can't, when you 'copy' a photo into an album that you've created directly on the iPad then you are effectively just creating a pointer to the photo and not creating a second copy of it - so if you then delete the original photo from your iPad you will also be deleting all pointers to it and therefore removing it from other albums.

    Why do you ask the same question again?  The first answer is not going to change just because you don't like it!!
