Unable to delete messages from queue.

I have a journaling rule setup to send mail to a archive appliance. I have two messages in my queue that are From Address:<> to my recipient (my archiver's email address). The journal rule works fine since it is working for all my users mail, but I have two messages stuck in my queue complaining that they could not be categorized and an event 9213 for MSExchangeTransport every 30 minutes.
"A non-expirable message with the internal message ID 7996 could not be categorized. This message may be a journal report or other system message. The message will remain in the queue until administrative action is taken to resolve the error. Other messages may also have encountered this error. To further diagnose the error, use the Queue Viewer or the Mail Flow Troubleshooter."
I have tried via the GUI and Shell to remove these two messages. The GUI gives me an error:
Microsoft Exchange Error
Action 'Remove (with NDR)' could not be performed on object 'RE: Test to determine if email can be delivered & Received'.
RE: Test to determine if email can be delivered & Received
Failed
Error:
The requested operation can't be performed for the object with identity MyMailServerName\Submission\7999.
OK
The Shell will actually not report back an error but I still have those messages in the queue. The command to see info about the message was:
Get-Message -IncludeRecipientInfo | Where { $_.Recipients -Like "*[email protected]*" } | Format-List
Then I tried deleting the message using the "InternetMessageID" info I gathered from this.
Remove-Message -Filter {InternetMessageID -eq "[email protected]"} -WithNDR $false
This prompts me for a Yes, No, etc... responce (I thought I had it this time) and gave me no error, but the message still resides in queue.
I am at a loss. Any help?

Correct, two messages stuck in queue and cannot remove.
Environment is a Windows 2003 R2 w/ SP2 64bit server, Exchange 2007 SP1 with all roles, AD/DNS is also Windows 2003 R2 w/ SP2 64bit.
This just seemed to start happening a few days ago and just with these two particular messages. I have a archive appliance from ArcMail and a journal rule setup in Exchange to journal all mail to the ArcMail appliance. This has been working and continues to work except for these two messages.

Unable to delete emails from care4free using thunderbird

I have just bought an imac and have transfered my thunderbird account from my old pc. I am unable to delete messages from my care4free POP account. Anyone help with this please?

Problems associated with deleting or moving email usually stem from failure to compact mail
folders, especially inboxes. This is because deleted email is not removed from the
application until you compact (expunge is the technical term). This can be done
automatically by a setting in your email account. Manually is simple enough. On any mail
folder do this: right click/compact (or File/Compact Folders). This is especially important
on inboxes but also, any folder from which you regularly delete/move email.
If you are experiencing problems you probably have a lot of uncompacted mail so be patient
the first time and watch the activity bar for its status (at the bottom of the application).

For some reason, I cannot delete messages from my Inbox. How do I correct this?

I am unable to delete messages from my Inbox on my MAC. What can I do to correct this?

Patrick
Thanks for the instructions. I got as far as Disk Utility, then hit Verify but couldn't find Repair Disk, the Mail icon was there but couldn't click on it.
Someone else suggested I hit the control button then delete which did work. Perhaps it was a combination of closing out of Mail and hitting the Control button/delete that helped? Weird............
thanks again,

Unable to delete mail from inbox. Message cannot move mail from inbox to trash. How do I solve this.

I am unable to delete mail from my inbox. A window appears saying "message could not be moved to the mailbox trash. How do I fix this.

Give your phone a reboot - hold down power/home button together for 10 to 15 secs or until you see the apple logo and then release, wait for your phone to reboot and then try moving your mail again.

Back up all data.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
Step 1
If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR..; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_; chmod -R -N ~ $_; } 2>&-
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take a few minutes to run, or perhaps longer if you have literally millions of files in your home folder. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if it frightens you, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password dialog will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
In the dialog, select the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if it's not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if it's not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

BOBJ is unable to delete file from OFRS

System Info:
Business Objects Enterprise XI3.1 SP3 FP3.2
Windows 2003 Server Enterprise Edition SP3
Oracle 10.2
Java 1.6.0_20
APACHE Tomcat 5.5.20
2 clustered servers
FRS located on SAN Disk Drive connected to primary server (Winchester1)
We use WebIntelligence exclusivly.
We are receiving the following error in our event log on our clustered server:
Source: BusinessObjects_CMS
Category: General
Type: Warning
Event ID: 33018
Computer: Winchester2
Unable to delete file from the file repository. Make sure a File Repository Server is running and registered and enabled. Details : Failed to connect to the File Repository Server output. Make sure the server is up and running.
We have verified the FRS is running and we are able to connect to it from our clustered server (Winchester2). The security settings are set to full control for the admin group and the users have Read/Write access to the file store folders. The errors are filling up our event logs and causing issues with the servers. this appears to be happening each morning and the file it is trying to delete is an .xls file.
We have a ticket open with SAP Support but they are just as baffled as we are and keep sending us from one group to another and tell us they need to look at it on thier end and they will get back to us.
Has anyone had this happen on their system?

Hi Richard, did you ever get this issue resolved? We are having a similar issue on XI R3 SP4 using NAS/CIFS shares for our File Stores. We see this issue mainly after our servers are patched and a full environment restart is initiated. Like you, our event logs fill up with so many error messages I cannot pinpoint exactly when the issue starts happening.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Windows Server 2012 R2 RDS: RDS Users are unable to delete files from their desktop

Hello,
We are working with Windows Server 2012 R2 RDS. We also implemented User Profile Disks. This is all working fine without problems. The only issue I have is that normal users are unable to delete files from their desktop. They are getting a message:
you'll need administrator permission to delete this file, with the prompt for administrator access.
They can edit, copy, rename, cut and paste files. But they cannot delete a file from their desktop.
I checked the security permissions of the files on the desktop (for example a normal self-created PDF file) and the users are owner and have "Full Control" over the files.
I checked the file permissions and took a look under "Advanced", selecting the specific domain user and checked the "Advanced Permissions" and the user has the "Delete" option checked. So he should be able to delete the
file.
I am guessing this is UPD related issue, or something in GPO. But I already unlinked the GPO objects, that I felt could be the source of this problem, but without results.
Could someone give me a hint on where to look? It's kinda annoying to users, that they can't delete their own files.

Hello Bria,
What you should check first, is the NTFS permissions on the User Profile Disk to begin with. See if the user has full control over the items that are in the UPD.
Also check the GPO's that are enabled for the user and computer account. You can check that by running: gpresult /h <path>\gpresult.html
There are two GPO settings that could prevent the user from deleting his/her own items:
User
Configuration\\Policies\\Administrative Templates\\Windows Components\\Windows Explorer\
Hide these specified drives in My Computer
Prevent access to specified drives in My
Computer
There might be other GPO settings, that block deleting items on the UPD, but can't think of any out of my head.
I can only think NTFS and GPO settings that might prevent the user from deleting items. In my case it was a GPO setting, that I didn't suspect.

Unable to delete files from powerpoint

I just installed MS office for iPad. I am experiencing an annoying problem with Powerpoint. When I download and open a file from OneDrive, oftentimes I am subsequently unable to delete it from within the iPad powerpoint program. I get a message that the file cannot be deleted because it is in use. I am able to delete the file from OneDrive on my computer no problem, but it remains on the iPad. Clearing the file cache from settings does not do the trick. I have to uninstall and reinstall powerpoint to get rid of the undeletable files. Am I missing something here? Thanks.

Unable to delete email from trash bin. How do I do this? If I select and chose delete, it doesn't. What am I doing wrong? My grand daughte is using my iPad and I don't want her to see some of the mail there.

Unable to delete email from trash bin. How do I do this? If I select and chose delete, it doesn't. What am I doing wrong? My grand daughte is using my iPad and I don't want her to see some of the mail there.

There are two ways that should work. When you are in the trash folder, you can swipe on the email in the list - left to right - and a red Delete button should pop up. Or you can select - Edit - at the top of the list of messages and then select the message and tap delete.
Not sure exactly how this works - but if you have restrictions enabled - especially since you let your grandchild use the device - that may be restricting what you can do in the mail app. Go to Settings>General>Restrictions. If you have it set to on - turn it off or see if you have mail restricted.

Outlook 2010 not deleting messages from Deleted Messages

I have Outlook 2010 standalone on a 64-bit Win Pro system. I have settings to empty Deleted Messages at exit and to delete messages from the server when downloaded by this instance of Outlook (POP3).
BUT ... when I exit Outlook, I get the dialogue about ok to delete messages, I accept deletion, and when I restart Outlook, not only are the messages back in the Deleted Messages folder, but the messages I deleted in the last session are back in the Inbox
and Junk Email folders! Manually emptying the Deleted Messages folder does not solve the problem.
And yes, I have checked that I have my POP3 settings in Outlook correctly set.

Could you just check this?
In Outlook 2010 Click the File tab, Click Account Settings, Click on account settings again, Hightlight existing email account, click change, click more settings..., click Advanced tab, in Delivery section uncheck box "Leave a copy of message on the server.",
click OK, click next, after test email has been sent click close, click finish

HT1146 I can not delete messages from my gmail account - help please

My deleted messages from my gmail account keep coming back. How can I permanently delete them?

Hello,
Certain Thunderbird problems can be solved by peforming a ''Clean Reinstall''. This means you remove Thunderbird's Program Files then reinstall Thunderbird. Please follow these steps:
#Download the latest version of Thunderbird from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/ and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download is complete, close all Thunderbird windows (Click Exit/Quit from the menu button on the right).
#*'''Windows:'''
#** C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\
#** C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Thunderbird\
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Thunderbird from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Thunderbird with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Thunderbird on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/ Thunderbird Download Page], simply remove the folder ''thunderbird'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Thunderbird:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to open Thunderbird after clicking the Finish button.
<b>WARNING:</b> Do not run Thunderbird's uninstaller or use a third party remover as part of this process, because that could permanently delete your Thunderbird data, including but not limited to, extensions,emails, personal settings and saved passwords. <u>These cannot be recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device!</u>
Please report back to see if this helped you!
Thank you.

I am unable to delete emails from my orange account and my mail box is now full?

Please help - I am unable to delete emails from my orange email account and as a result my mail box is full and I cannot receive any emails. Whether I try to delete a message either individually or the entire inbox it just says my inbox is full and I need to delete some messages!Thank youSara

What domain is your email addy? Don't think there is much you can do about it. Seen others get in this bind with these small mailboxes. There might be a way round it depending on your domain.

Delete messages from server?

Hi Guys,
I have a question regarding mail management.
Here is my situation:
I have a GMX e-mail account; when I manage my e-mail on a computer (any computer), I always use the web-based e-mail straight from the website. I have this e-mail address configured in Mail on my iPad as an IMAP account. When I check my mail via iPad, it shows me my current inbox, but if I delete messages from iPad, it moves the message to trash, but does not reflect this on the server. So when I go to login to my account from a regular computer, any e-mail(s) that I have deleted through my iPad are still in my inbox at the GMX website.
On my iPad, I have turned Push to Off and I have Fetch set to manual, whenever I launch Mail. I have tried hitting the refresh on my iPad after I move a message to Trash, and my iPad's Mail settings are set to move deleted items to the "Trash" folder on the GMX server. Sending and receiving e-mails are no problem.
What am I doing wrong here? I am tired of deleting messages on my iPad (such as spam) and then having to go onto a computer and login to GMX and delete them again.
Btw, same exact issue on my iPhone with exact same e-mail settings.
Thanks,
Emile

Thanks for the tip, Ralph.
I just went over to the GMX website and went to their support forum and apparently this is a known problem when accessing e-mail through an IMAP or POP3 e-mail client. A post was made at the end of August saying they are aware of the problem and are trying to fix it.
I've had this issue with my GMX account since my first-generation iPhone and they've just realized it a month and a half ago. I wonder how long it's going to take for them to repair the issue, sheesh!
I will mark this thread as resolved but since I just have to wait for GMX to fix the problem on their side. At least we got to the bottom of this, thanks for the help guys.

Delete messages from server when deleted from iTouch doesn't work

Hi everybody,
Two questions really...
One is that with my 2nd gen iTouch I was able to set IMAP settings and it would show all of the folders (other than Inbox) that I have created on my mail account. The 4th gen iTouch doesn't seem to let me see the sub-folders.
The second is that I have my account set to delete messages from the server when they are deleted from my Inbox, but that simply doesn't work.
This is withe the iTouch 4 and OS 4.1 (8B117)
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Is it possible that I have the wrong Server Port entered? I didn't fill in that field at all. I think it was filled in automatically. I guess I would have to contact my hosting company's support team to know what the server port is.
