Hello Sammie and list,
I think this is normal behavior. My machine does much the same thing. If
the database isn't really full, it won't clear. I think the BN decides when
the database gets cleared out each time you attempt to clear the database.

Subject: RE: [Braillenote] zero bites freed
Hello Listers,
is this a problem or a bug? I'm asking because this has happened to me
since 7.0. I've freed the database space after clearing as many as 100
messages from the trash folder and my MPower reports "0 bytes freed).
Later, I can clear as few as 20 and get a report of "439036 bytes (or
more) freed". I always free database space when I empty the trash, so
having 0 bytes after freeing a hundred or more, then having over four
hundred (or more) after freeing twenty or less does not sound logical to
me. Also, sometimes after no messages in the trash for a number of hours,
but having sent maybe 15 or 20 messages, I'll hit the E-SF keys and get a
few hundred thousand bytes freed. If this is not a problem, or will not
eventually hurt my BrailleNote, there's no need to reply, but if this is a
bug, or may cause my device some injury, then PLEASE Humanware address it
in the patch you will give us for the 7.x series or in some future update.
Humanware staff -- if this is a problem and can be fixed, please let me
know, so I can (hopefully) expect a fix in the future. I am using a 32
cell device with a braille keyboard.
Thank you,
Sammie Clay

Subject: [Braillenote] zero bites freed
I had 13 emails in my trash folder and when I did esf, it said
zero bites freed. Why? I'm a bit concerned. Eventually it will
free up my database space but how many emails have to be in my
trash folder in order for it to give me a number (ie) 124562)
bites freed?
