From the messages list view (That is just the regular view where you up and down arrow to messages before hitting enter to open them) within the folder you want to delete, - Press alt-O for the folder tab on the ribbon; - Tab about 7 times until you here "Delete folder button" - Press space to activate the button; - You will then get the 'are you sure ..." dialogue and a Yes and no button; - Press space to activate the 'Yes' button. That's it. Regards Susan -----Original Message-----

For those who attempted to help me out, I deeply appreciate the help that was given. I was on the phone with the disability help desk for about two hours. Now four last questions. At least I hope so. SMILES. 1. I know it is either ctrl and the letter d and or via the small delete key that's on the calculator keypad will delete messages. 2. But how can one kill off mailboxes AKA folders? I tired to use the applications key to down arrow to the delete with no luc, and I've tried without using the applications key to use just the delete key and a ctrl d combo, as well with no success. If I could figure out how to kill off some folders and only leave the important folders as I rebuild my mailboxes would be deeply appreciated. I at least have move all of my mail back into the inbox for now. 3. Can anyone help me to create a message rule once again? When in WLM the first column that was in the rule I always made sure that where the to or cc line contains people was always checked. I'd like to be able to do message rules within outlook as well. 4. One last item. Can anyone also assist me in creating a signature aka tag line as well? Again, with deep appreciation for all of the help. Ron who's still learning how to use the outlook mail package |

Any advice on doing the message rules? Like I stated in my letter. I like the one column where you down arrow to where the to and cc contained people. That way it looks at both the to and cc fields when the letter comes in. One other area. It looks like my signature isn't working, but that's small potatoes. Many thanks for the help.

How do I delete subfolders? I set up some mock sub folders in one of my Gmail accounts and now, don't know how to delete them. They are empty, but still an irritant.

I assume you are trying to do this in your Outlook Gmail account and not the

Gmail web site? I am also not clear whether you tried the instructions for deleting folders I recently provided. So given I have to make some assumptions: I will assume you are trying to delete subfolders in your Outlook Gmail account and That you have not tried the previous instructions. I will suggest two options: Option 1: This is as per my previous instructions: Go into each subfolder in turn and do the following. From the messages list view (That is just the regular view where you up and down arrow to messages before hitting enter to open them) within the folder you want to delete, - Press alt-O for the folder tab on the ribbon; - Tab about 7 times until you here "Delete folder button" - Press space to activate the button; - You will then get the 'are you sure ..." dialogue and a Yes and no button; - Press space to activate the 'Yes' button. Repeat for each folder you wish to delete Option 2: This assumes you are able to navigate the folder structure by pressing Shift-F6 from an open folder. From the messages list view (That is just the regular view where you up and down arrow to messages before hitting enter to open them) within a folder - Press Shift-F6 to get to the folder navigation area; - using up/down arrows and right arrow to open subfolders as required, move to the folder you wish to delete; - Press Applications key or (Shift F10) to bring up the context menu; - Press down arrow to select 'Delete Folder' and press enter; - You should get a prompt saying "move [folder name] to your deleted folder?" and a Yes and No Button probably with the 'Yes' button as default. Press Space on the 'Yes' button. - This will leave you placed in the folder tree and able to navigate to another folder. Repeat as necessary. To return say back to the inbox navigate to it by up/down arrow and press Enter. I hope that helps. Regards Susan -----Original Message-----
