I have an email in my pearl that I can't delete - any ideas who to get rid of it?

Do a battery pull with the BB turned on.

[chanko]

how long do I leave it out?

[BergerKing]

20-30 seconds usually suffices.

I took the battery out and it still didn't remove the email - I've tried everyway I can come up with - any other ideas?

Did you try to delete it again after the battery pull? Also, try deleting the email from your computer on the email account.

yep - its an email - but when I try to delete it it thinks its a text

Try placing the cursor on the date header that is above the "text/email" then press the menu key and select Delete Prior.

Warning, this will delete ALL prior emails.

Go to your combined messages folder, press "t" so you're sure you're at the top. Then hit menu and select "mark prior opened." If that doesn't work, you need to check your saved messages folder and make sure there's not an unread message in there.

dang it - checked those too. and it just won't go away. Its not on the server either.

Are you sure your pulled the battery out while the device was ON?

A little extreme, but you can Backup to Desktop Manager then wipe your BB.

Options > Security Options > General Settings, Press Menu, Wipe Handheld.

Everything will be deleted except your OS. On Desktop Manager, select Advanced, then File, Open, open your backup file, then select everything except your messages to be restored to your BB.
