How to Delete Emails in Horde Webmail

What is Horde?

Horde is a webmail program. Webmail lets you read and manage email in your web browser. You only need to sign in on a web page.

Before you start

Emptying the trash removes mail for good. Before you do that, check that you do not need the messages. If they matter, save them or take a backup first.

Steps to delete one email

1. Sign in to Horde and open Mail.

   

2. Click Inbox on the left.
3. Click the message you want to remove. It opens on the right or in a new view.
4. Click Delete in the toolbar.

   

The message moves to the Trash folder in most setups. Some setups only mark it as deleted until you clean up.

Steps to delete several emails

1. Open the folder with the messages.
2. Tick the small box next to each message you want to remove.
3. To pick many in a row, tick the first, hold the Shift key and tick the last.
4. Click Delete in the toolbar.
