Subject: Email cleanup

Question
Is there a way to list all the emails that do not belong to a folder?  I have many emails stored in various folders and I want to keep those documents.  But I have many messages that only appears in the view "All documents".  I'd like to delete those "orphan" documents.

I was thinking to backup only my folders, then I could wipe out everything and restore my folders, but I've been told it was not possible.

Thanks

Answer
Hi,

Once you delete a document from the All Views, they get deleted from the folder if they are in a folder. So, you can safely delete those mails from the all documents view if they are not in a folder.

By the way, the documents in the all view are NOT orphan documents. They are the REAL documents.

I hope this is clear.

Test before proceeding.

Regards.

Paski
