  2. Use the "Delete" button: Open the email you want to delete and click on the "Delete" button in the top right corner of the window.
  3. Use the "Shift + Delete" shortcut: Select the email you want to delete and press "Shift + Delete" on your keyboard.
  4. Use the "Ctrl + Shift + Delete" shortcut: Select multiple emails you want to delete and press "Ctrl + Shift + Delete" on your keyboard.
  5. Use the "Quick Steps" feature: Create a Quick Step to delete emails by following these steps:
    • Go to the "Home" tab in the ribbon.
    • Click on the "Quick Steps" button.
    • Click on "Create New Quick Step".
    • Choose "Delete" as the action.
    • Name your Quick Step (e.g., "Delete Email").

    • To use the Quick Step, select the email(s) you want to delete and click on the "Delete Email" button in the "Quick Steps" pane.

Note: When you delete an email in Outlook, it is moved to the "Deleted Items" folder. If you want to permanently delete the email, you can empty the "Deleted Items" folder by right-clicking on it and choosing "Empty Folder".

Additionally, you can also use the "Sweep" feature to delete multiple emails at once:

  1. Select the emails you want to delete.
  2. Right-click on the selected emails and choose "Sweep".
  3. Choose the folder you want to move the emails to (e.g., "Deleted Items").
  4. Click "OK".

This will delete the selected emails and move them to the specified folder.
