Keep Outlook running smoothly by emptying the Deleted Items folder

Outlook stores messages, including large attachments, in one file. That storage file includes the Deleted Items folder. When you fail to empty the Deleted Items folder, the deleted email continues to contribute to the mailbox size. Therefore you should regularly empty the Deleted Items folder.

You can configure Outlook to automatically empty Deleted Items when exiting the email application. Do the following:
1. Click Tools, and select Options,
2. Click the Other tab and select Empty The Deleted Items Folder Upon Exiting
3. Click the OK button.

Please note you will be given a choice when exiting Outlook.
