I no longer sync my mailbox because I don't use my Palm to read e-mail. However, I'm left with 450 messages in my Palm Mailbox. How do I get rid of them without deleting them one by one.

Anyone?

If you have a file manager program on your Palm like Filez (freeware), you can get to most data bases and applications and delete them thru that program. Just look for the file "mail db" and delete it using the Filez program and that should take care of it. I've done that for my datebook and addressbook when selling my Palm pdas. I don't use mail but assume that it should be the same. You should free up some space on your Palm as well by deleting all that mail.
If you do a Google search, you should be able to get the Filez link.
Good luck. Mary
