Secure email cleanup

UltraSentry supports a robust email cleanup that can be used to securely delete email from your hard drive. UltraSentry's secure email cleanup supports Eudora, Microsoft Outlook, Outlook Express, and Thunderbird.

In order to complete Outlook/Outlook Express mail cleanup in a secure way, UltraSentry performs an advanced disk wiping procedure. Email cleaning operations may take an extended period of time due to this special operation. When running any profile that includes "Wipe Unused/Free Disk Space" it is highly recommended you close all running applications and schedule it when you are not planning on using your computer.

Select Email Cleanup

Select the email cleanup option from the main toolbar, you will be presented with options to clean: Eudora, Microsoft Outlook, Outlook Express, and Thunderbird.
