I've recently set up a pc, using outlook from OfficeXP, with an IMAP email account.

On this pc, when emails are deleted or moved out of the Inbox, they remain shown there but with a
line struck through them. It seems that this is in case I later want to "undelete" them.

HOW do I TOTALLY delete them like I can with POP3 inboxes?
 
The strikethrough is characteristic of remote connections. It indicates the
message will be deleted from the server next time you connect.

Thank you ....

Now if Micro$haft could write software where I can see ALL the pull down menu items ALL the time
(and not just those few that Micro$haft in their wisdom think I'd be interested in) then I would
have seen that and not neede to ask the question.

Why do they hide most of the menu options all the time?

How can I have them ALL automatically show ALL the time (without having to click again to get them)?
