Hi everybody (I know this is not a XP-related issue, but I posted here because that's my OS).

From some time ago I've noticed that I can't move messages from my Hotmail's bulk folder to the trash can. When I select them and send them to the trash, the confirmation message appears, but after clicking on "OK", nothing happens. The weird thing is, I can move them to any folder other than trash. Also, inbox folder's messages can be moved to trash without any problems. I have to move the bulk messages to the "Drafts" folder (or any other) and then to trash, or open the message and send it to the trash from there. I thought it was a Hotmail problem, but I tried in other PC and it worked OK. Thank you in advance for your input on this issue.

Alvaro Martin Gomez, SWAG, don't use Hotmail so this's just a guess. My gut's telling me that you're fighting a space issue. My inclination's to empty the trash folder and see if that helps.
Often, there seems to be some sort of limit imposed to prevent something getting too large. Why would it work from other folders? Dunno unless the size limit is based on what's been sent from that folder rather than the size of the destination folder?
HTH.
