OL2002: Error Messages When You Delete Large Number of Messages (289999)
The information in this article applies to:
This article was previously published under Q289999 SYMPTOMS When you try to delete more than 4,000 messages at one
time, you may receive one of the following error messages:
There is not enough memory available to perform the
operation Some items could not be deleted. They
were either moved or already deleted, or access was denied.
CAUSE This behavior occurs because Outlook can handle a bulk
deletion of no more than 4,000 messages when it is working with a server
message store. WORKAROUND To work around this behavior, delete fewer than 4,000
messages in a single operation. STATUSMicrosoft
has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed
at the beginning of this article.
