contents We prove an asymptotic formula with a power saving error term for the fourth moment of the family of Dirichlet $L$-functions to modulus $q$ mollified by a Dirichlet polynomial of length $q^{\frac1{22}-\ve}$, valid for all moduli $q\not\equiv2 \pmod 4$. This result was previously known only for restricted sets of moduli with smaller power savings. As a special case, when no Dirichlet polynomial is enclosed, this leads to a significant improvement on X. Wu's asymptotic evaluation of the fourth moment of Dirichlet $L$-functions at the cental point.
