my hdd was near full:92%
so I looked weeks - why ...
now:
icedove
inbox
sent
trash
if you empty each message manual/by hand: it is empty.
But: hdd still full: 92%
BUT: if you right-click on "trash" :
you get "empty trash"
you will be asked: on "empty trash"
"Are you sure you want to permanently delete all messages...bla bla"
and click: OK
so my 3-mail-accounts are now trash-empty:
! 85% hdd space available !
whow ! trash since 2 or 3 years ... crazy. |

Don't forget to compact the trash (right click on trash - compact) |

For me compacting the Inbox is usually the big one. |
