Delete Method (Messages Collection)
The Delete
method deletes all the messages in the Messages collection.
Syntax
objMsgColl.Delete()
Parameters
objMsgColl
Required. The
Messages collection object.
Remarks
The Delete
method moves the deleted messages to the Deleted Items folder, if the user has
enabled this option. If the option is not enabled, or if the messages are
already in the Deleted Items folder, the Delete method permanently
deletes them, and they cannot be recovered.
Be cautious
using the Delete method with a collection, since it deletes all the
collection s member objects. To delete only one Message object, use the Delete method specific to that
object.
The Delete
method on a large collection takes effect immediately and is permanent. Any
object once deleted cannot be recovered.
For example,
this code fragment deletes all of the messages in a folder:
objFolder.Messages.Delete
