Outlook is one of the best free email service providers you can use. It offers 50 GB of free storage to store your emails. If you are using it for a very long time and it is almost full, it will create problems in the future. Users cannot send or receive emails when it reaches the ultimate storage level. To continue sending and receiving emails, you have to clean up your emails. Outlook lets you delete emails from a specific folder at once, but you may lose some important ones that were sent to you in recent times. This article helps you delete emails by timestamp so that you can retain your recent emails stored in any folder, using the Storage settings provided by Outlook.
