Not Freeing Memory

Submitted by frankmarco on January 13, 2009 - 10:08am

Hello,
I am using portable apps (v1.0.0.0) with Thunderbird (v2.0.0.19) running from a USB flash drive.

However, I noticed that whenever I delete any emails that none of the memory is reclaimed. Therefore my usb drive is almost completely full.

Is there some setting I am missing or is this a known issue?

Thank You,
frankmarco

Deleted mail is not deleted until you COMPACT the folder.

Right click on the mail folder in Thunderbird, choose "compact".

It is also worth checking that they aren't just being moved to the Trash folder and building up in there
