When Strong Bad gets an email he doesn't like, it gets DELETED!! This is apparently mandatory with the "How do you type with boxing gloves on?" emails, although there are many more that succumb to this fate. When Strong Bad deletes an email, it is accompanied by a loud buzzing noise, which also appears in many other places on the site.

Sightings
Tandy 400 Era
In this era, the DELETED screen is a green background with black letters. (Oddly, "DELETED!" appears in the Compy's font.)
- Email homestar hair (almost, see fun fact below)
- Debut: Email spring cleaning
- Email sisters
- Theme Song Video (DVD version only)
- Email pop-up (as a pop-up in the pop-up book)
- Email retirement (the Tandy requests one last email. Strong Bad obliges, deletes the email and blows up the Tandy in the process.)
Compy 386 Era
In this era, the DELETED screen is a blue background with white letters.
- Email 50 emails
- Email huttah! (Most of the emails get DELETED in this episode)
- Email unused emails
- Email 2 emails
- Email car (almost, see fun fact below)
- Email replacement

Fun Facts and Abnormalities
- The very first deleted email (a Hairstyle Runner design) was in homestar hair. Strong Bad typed "delete that crap," instead of DELETED!!
- In the email spring cleaning, Strong Bad DELETES every email he receives.
- In the email sisters, the malfunctioning Tandy 400 causes Strong Bad to inadvertently delete the email he was trying to reply to. When he tries to delete the second email, it ends up being "saved forever".
- In 50 emails, Strong Bad types "matt = DELETED!", and the email is in fact deleted with the word "MATT!" displayed on the screen. Homestar Runner also attempts (and spectacularly fails) to perform the "DELETED!" gag. He tries "BALEETED!", "DELTEATED!", "Del Taco?", and quite a few other words. He ends up crashing the computer with a Flagrant Error.
- On the third email in huttah!, Strong Bad says "Moving on!" and the computer flashes "MOVING ON!!" when the email is deleted.
- In labor day, when Strong Bad doesn't show up to the Labor Day party, Strong Sad jokes that Strong Bad's invitation may have been "da-leet-ed."
- In unused emails, Strong Bad winds up and screams "DELETED!", body-slamming the Compy in the process.
- He is about to do this again in car, but Homestar saves the email from a "tired old Strong Bad joke" and is rewarded with a punch in the face.
- In replacement, Coach Z's attempt at the word "DELETED" caused the Compy to flash "DELORTED!!" on a yellow screen, and the corresponding buzzer became distorted.
- In virus, Strong Bad tries twice to delete the offending email, but he is thwarted by The Virus, receiving the messages "NICE TRY!" and "NOTTA CHANCE!!".
- While the Lappy has not yet deleted any emails, it is apparently able to start them over, as seen in do over.
- The pop up book in pop-up features DELETED!!, but makes the sound of Strong Bad's voice saying DELETED rather than the expected buzz sound. According to Strong Bad, it sounds more like "the lake head" or "Police Quest".
