One option is to delete those emails from the web portal of the email provider

Eg if your mail provider is Yahoo! - the web portal would be mail.yahoo.com

If your account is IMAP (as most accounts are these days) the email should be cleared from the inbox

Sorry that did not work for you

Are you getting any error message when you try to delete those offending emails?
