Emptying Deleted Items Manually
Your Deleted Items folder does impact your space available. So you may want to manually empty the folder from time to time if you are running out of room in your account. Remember that once you delete them from Deleted Items they are gone for good. So it's always a good idea to scroll through and double check first.
To manually delete items, click Deleted Items on the left side. Then click Empty above your deleted messages. Finally click YES in the dialogue box that appears. Your messages that you have deleted are gone permanently.
