How Do You Automatically Empty The Deleted Mail File In Outlook?
Normally when we delete something we don’t need it and don’t care if we see it again. So why not have Outlook automatically empty your “deleted” file, so you don’t have too? Open Microsoft Outlook and click on “Tools” in the toolbar. Next, click on “Options.” This will open the “Options” window. You will now see a variety of tabs at the top of the “Options” window. Click on the tab marked “Other.” Check the box where it says “Empty the Deleted Items folder upon exiting.” This will allow Outlook to empty your “deleted items” folder when you close Outlook. If you would like Outlook to ask you before emptying the file, continue to the next step. To have Outlook ask you before permanently removing the deleted items, click on the button marked “Advanced Options.” This will open the “Advanced Options” window and you can check the box where it says “Warn before permanently deleting items.” Click “OK” to save the settings in “Advanced Options” and click “Apply” to save the other settings.
