when deleting messages I get this message:“74608.emlx” couldn’t be copied to “Messages” because an item with the same name already exists. How can I fix this problem?

When trying to delete messages in mail, I've been getting this message:“74608.emlx” couldn’t be copied to “Messages” because an item with the same name already exists." The numbers at the beginning are always different but the ".emlx" and the rest of the statement is always the same. How can I fix this problem?


Thanks
