Thanks for the help, but that didn't work. I'm pretty sure it's not a corrupted .pst file, since I deleted and created the account again only to have the same problem.
I should mention I have managed to delete some of them. Not sure why those were able to delete while others will not. Also, there is an email that is not even on the server that won't delete from Outlook. This is a corporate gmail account if that matters.
This is really baffling and frustrating. These emails just won't delete and purge. They just live on like creatures from the Twighlight zone. I think I've tried everything.
