To whom it may concern,
I frequently use Telnet to log into and access POP email accounts at my work. I am fairly familiar with the commonly used POP commands. Does anybody know if there is a command or parameter that can be added to the DELE command which would delete the entire contents of a mailbox without having to manually use the DELE command on each message listed. Any response would be appreciated, if you know of any more appropriate forum for this query let me know.

Thanks,
Jacob T.

If you are using Outlook
from tools/accounts select the account you want to clean mailbox. Edit properties and from advanced bar in the bottom unselect leave a copy of message from server and select delete when removed from deleted iteems and adjust the time. It could be a solution. I hope answer what you ask and would be a solution.
