The file size of inbox won't reduce after deleting incoming mails. I have two e-mail accounts which stores in NTFS directories. After I deleted mails in Inbox, the file size of Trash increased but the size of Inbox remained. If I empty the Trash, file size of Trash becomes zero but Inbox remains the same. The result is, I have a Inbox size 90MB and 27MB for another. I created another temp account and moved all mails there, deleted the original account. The size of Inbox dropped from 90MB to less than 10MB. I created a new account using the same name and settings as before, moved all mails back. The size is reduced but again, it won't reduce after deleting mails in it.
third copy of this bug filed in a row, by accident, I assume.
