Actually the problem is can't empty message headers. Tried the WMutil and all
other suggestions from this forum. I did succeed in corrupting the msstore
data base. The empty deleted on exit also quit working. I now have 202
message headers in my deleted box. The newer ones I can delete. I also
discovered some item that says "Message can not be found" (Header still
present) can also be deleted. Where I have " Message could not be displayed"
in the text box I also get "Windows Mail encountered an unexpected problem
while displaying this message. Check your computer for low memory or low disk
space and try again."
Any Ideas on what the rea; problem is?

The real problem is that Windows Mail is very susceptible to certain
types of data corruption, especially so when non-compatible
antivirus products are running.

Just upgrade to Windows Live Mail and be done with Windows Mail:

I initially ran Windows Mail for two weeks with WLOC and then
I got hit by a stuck message in the Outbox.

So, either WLOC is also suspect, or else the corruption mechanism
is not related to antivirus programs. Take your pick.
Either way, WM is unstable and can't be relied upon.
