I recently used my frih.net email to sign up for something that would not accept a free email account such as gmail.com. The problem is, on trying to access my email via the web I get a "Fatal error: Allowed memory size" as it seems this never before used email address has been harvesting spam for q2uite a long time. Over 11,000 of them in fact. I assume the server is balling all these up into one big file and this the PHP web mail is unable to open it due to preset server limits.
Now I don't need any of those 11,000 emails aside from the recent activation email I should have received, and I'll need to start using the account from here on out.
My question is this; How do I go about deleting all these emails (and saving that one that I need) seeing as how I cannot access my email via the web due to the "Fatal error: Allowed memory size" error?
Thanks in advance.

PS- Quick update, I managed to gather my email (all 11,000+ of it) through Outlook Express and did in fact save tha tone email I needed. I thought this would solve my problem completely too, however I find now that even though I've downloaded all these emails the server is still holding onto that huge file for some reason. My Outlook express is not set to leave a copy on the server, so I'm not sure how to go about getting rid of all this spammy email.
