Hi all,

In Outlook 2007 when you delete mail message from IMAP mailbox it is held in
the mailbox but shown in strikethrough gray. It can be purged after, but it
never moved inside IMAP or personal folders trash box, like it does for
non-IMAP accounts. Is there any way to force mail deletion from IMAP folder
inside trash?

Thank you in advance,

Dr Maxim Orlovsky

No - that's how IMAP works. IMAP mirrors the folders on the server. The
only way round it is to convert to a POP account...
