Problem deleting mail in live mail

I have 2 accounts in live mail. My bluehost account is the default and has no problems deleting emails. My Verizon pop3 account is the issue. If I try to delete emails using the delete icon, nothing happens. If I click on the email from the side I can delete from there. It is inconvenient due to the amount of spam I have to delete, I would like to be able to use the delete button but it doesn't work. I have gone into programs and tried to fix using repair but it still doesn't work. Any help would be appreciated.
