Re: [MlMt] cannot delete previously trashed message
Thanks Bill. I gave the terminal commands a go at it, and now things are... well... different. So the problem keeps changing, but I'll get it figured out. Appreciate your courtesy!

Re: [MlMt] cannot delete previously trashed message
See my attached reply to your earlier post on the mailing list On 2022-05-07 at 14:35:52 UTC-0400 (Sat, 07 May 2022 11:35:52 -0700) Tracy Valleau is rumored to have said: Hello I have an email listed in my Source/Trash folder that does not physically exist, and I cannot remove the (red) entry. It's my fault: I installed GPG for a bit and then decided I didn't want it. Before I removed it however, someone sent me a signed email to which I replied. The reply failed because I didn't have a signed key. I created a new unsigned email and replied, and then moved the "not signed" email to the trash. Now it's stuck there.

I assume that you've restarted MailMate since deleting the actual file. If not, do that. If you already tried that, you can do a rebuild of the database from what's actually on disk. That process is documented in the Help, linked from the top page of the Help. -- Bill Cole b...@scconsult.com or billc...@apache.org (AKA @grumpybozo and many *@billmail.scconsult.com addresses) Not Currently Available For Hire ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate --- End Message --- ___ mailmate mailing list mailmate@lists.freron.com https://lists.freron.com/listinfo/mailmate
[MlMt] cannot delete previously trashed message
Hello I have an email listed in my Source/Trash folder that does not physically exist, and I cannot remove the (red) entry. It's my fault: I installed GPG for a bit and then decided I didn't want it. Before I removed it however, someone sent me a signed email to which I replied. The reply failed because I didn't have a signed key. I created a new unsigned email and replied, and then moved the "not signed" email to the trash. Now it's stuck there. I looked at the trash via Webmail, and it's empty. I looked in the mailmate folders and found it in the local trash and so deleted it with the finder. oops. The red-text listing for the email still appears in my /source/trash mailbox in Mailmate, and now I get a message telling me I have an Anti-Virus problem. It suggests I try /message/reset, but it's grayed out. It appears that the message only exists in MailMate's internals somewhere, and I cannot find it. So: two things One: a PGP fail should not leave a message which cannot be deleted in the first place and two: I likely made the situation worse with my mucking about... but still and all, there should be -some- way to correct this and/or do a "force delete".
