hi,
maybe not the most professional way but my mailbox is jammed and i want to clear it. My ISP host is doing some office refurnishing and needs all his attention to pick the right color hues.
So i thought maybe i can send a simple POP command to delete all mails in the mailbox? It's 14000 mails since last thursday!
Maybe using mr Lemos' POP script class?
Yes, the class maybe a better solution than most e-mail programs to delete so many messages in the server.

Make sure you get an updated version from here as there are some old versions elsewhere.

Make sure you quit the POP3 connection properly with the class or else the server may not commit the delete requests when you disconnect.


My email client eudora complains it cannot get a 'lock'- mailbox in use. This can be the mail subsystem thingy keeping sending itself a warning email. Ideas?
This means that there is some program accessing your mailbox at the time. if you are not sure what program that may be, ask your system administration for help or else there will be no program that will be able to delete your messages.
