outlook delete problem

STAN NATHANSON

When I try to perminently delete an email from my delete
folder, I get the following message: "The message
interface has returned an unknown error. If the problem
pesists, restart Outlook. I have done that and I still
have the problem. I have more than 5,000 items in my
delete file and I would like to see them gone for good.
Suggestions.

You can use the Empty Deleted Items under Tools->Options->Other->Advanced.
I set mine to not prompt since what I put in the trash always needs to be
taken out.
