How do I empty the rubbish folder

[jrclarke007]

How do I permanently delete old messages from the rubbish folder ?

[*sparklz* · Accepted solution]

You can't

They will drop off after some time just like they do when left in your inbox

I have messages that are 6 months old in my rubbish folder, why can I not empty it as I can with my email server.? It seems a bit senseless to maintain old messages for so long.

Did you read sparklz's reply from TWO YEARS ago?

If so, you have your answer. If not, read it. It's the one immediately prior to your post.

Maybe not so senseless.

Buyers can still open a case up to 180 days in Paypal.

You might be grateful for those messages.

Besides being 4 years late to the party.

Please only speak for yourself,  I don't find it useful,  why do you say all, when you really have no idea what people find useful

Why wait this long if you had something snarky to say about it?
