re: Inbox Move all good emails out of Inbox into other suitable folders. create folders as necessary to organise messages eg: Family, Friends, Bills, Online Orders etc etc Delete all emails you do not want. When Inbox is empty, right click on Inbos and select: Compact

right click on 'Deleted/Trash' folder and select 'Empty Deleted'

Info on compacting, what it does and why it is important.
