I get bucket loads of emails in my Inbox. I have created Filters for many but not all. So I set the Inbox to Alphabetic sequence in the "FROM" heading so that I can delete say 100 emails from the same sender. This has never been a problem in the past! But now it will not delete the bulk 100 emails! Even though they have been "highlighted" in blue, when I press the "Delete" button it just changes the blue highlight to a grey highlight. So then I try deleting just one of the hundred emails and it deletes it ok! So then I try just 50 of the 100 and it will NOT delete them!!! So then I try 25 of the 50 and it still will not delete them!!! WHAT IS GOING ON PLEASE? THIS IS RIDICULOUS and makes the deleting task a massive time-consuming nightmare!!! Phil.

do you have an antivirus scanning email? Or encrypted connections as I have seen one of them describe their crippling interference in normal operations.
