 * Hello and thank you for your work,
 * After upgrading to v1.8 on a single site we experience an error when trying to
   bulk delete ALL logs and logs do NOT get deleted:
 * > WordPress database error Table ‘database_name.$table_name’ doesn’t exist for
   > query DELETE FROM $table_name made by require_once(‘wp-admin/admin.php’), do_action(‘
   > tools_page_email-log’), call_user_func_array, EmailLog->display_logs, Email_Log_List_Table-
   > >prepare_items, Email_Log_List_Table->process_bulk_action
 * On top of that although we have just 9 entries the plugin thinks and displays
   the number 79 (79 items). Then we delete 5 of them and the number drops by 5 
   but still displays the wrong number 74 and not 4.

 * Deleted and reinstalled the plugin.
    No luck. 🙁 Delete ALL still doesn’t work
   and gives errors. But. Did some more testing and found the reason for the item
   display issue.
 * The displayed items number is picked up by the ID number of the latest entry 
   and NOT the total number of entries (items).
    I explain. Lets say the ids of 
   your items are: 35, 28, 10, 7, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. The items’ number shows 35 although
   there are only 9 items. You delete items 28, 5 and 2. The number shown is still
   35. You delete 35, 10, 3. It shows number 7 when only 3 items (7, 4, 1) are present.
 * I hope that helps.

 * Thanks for reporting the issue. I guess it got introduced in the changes that
   I did for v1.8
 * I am debugging the issue right now. Will make a release once I fix it.

 * I have fixed the issue that was introduced in v1.8 that broke the “Delete all
   Logs” functionality and released v1.8.1 with the fix.
 * Kindly update the plugin and let me know if you are still facing this issue.

 * We updated to v1.8.1.
    Can not at the moment test it for the “Delete all Logs”
   functionality. Sorry 🙁
 * But we deleted some emails and the **numbering issue still remains**. Although
   we have only 6 emails we are told they are 21.
 * You have to give it another try I am afraid. At least for this part.
