Can't delete messages using keyboard (Delete key)

[Richard]

Hi, I have Outlook Express 2002 (version details below)
and just recently noticed that I cannot deleted a
highlighted message in any folders using the delete key on
my keyboard. Since I was able to delete messages using the
delete key previously, I suspect I changed one of the
Outlook setup options, but cannot find which option, if
any, that is causing this problem. Any information
regarding how this might be caused in Outlook is
appreciated. Thanks, RP

There is no such beast as Outlook Express 2002. It is either Outlook2002,
or Outlook Express 4.x, 5.x, or 6.x. Look under Help->About.

More importantly, how can I edit/delete my
email in my original post as displayed up here ? I'm getting
inundated with virus-laden emails because my email is visible....

Modify your News account so that the "E-mail Address" box contains a bogus
value.
