Hello everyone,

after a very "interesting" Sunday afternoon clearing out my Outlook (Hotmail) and Gmail e-mail accounts, things are looking a lot neater. Sadly, not in Thunderbird though, as the program's still showing all of the old e-mails that I deleted through each of the individual addresses (Not on Thunderbird)

What the best way of getting Thunderbird to mimic what's left in each inbox, not what was there before the clean up?

Many thanks in advance :)
