unable to delete email in deleted item
You have to disable Single Item recovery first and remove any holds placed on the mailbox. It's all detailed in the article above.
I had disable Single Item recovery and try empty the deleted items. it still has the same error and not allow to delete it.
I try to go into light version of OWA. It allow to delete it as a subfolder under manage folders
Deleted is 138 bytes and Recoverable items is all 0 bytes
I still cannot migrate this mailbox to office365. it still shows the same error.
Error: MigrationPermanentException: Mailbox dumpster size 30 GB (32,213,335,723 bytes) exceeds target quota 30 GB (32,212,254,720 bytes). Mailbox dumpster size 30 GB (32,213,335,723 bytes) exceeds target quota 30 GB (32,212,254,720 bytes).

Does the mailbox have an archive enabled and did you check the RecoverableItems subtree in the archive?

Interesting, so it seems the issue is with the quota, not the actual used size. I suppose you can try setting the quota to a lower value, preferably on the database level so that other mailboxes don't run into the same issue.
