Can one permanently dlete a message from the Inbox (like the Shift-DEL in Outlook)- i.e. without going through two stages of deletion...?

The combination of the Shift with the Delete from the pop-up menu works. What seems not to work is the Shift-X icon (on the toolbar). It simply adds a new a separator to the left of the X (Delete icon)... Any idea? "Hezi" wrote:

In Windows Mail's options, you can have it automatically delete everything in you Delete Folder when you exit Windows Mail. It's under the Advanced tab & then click on the Maintenance button. You'll then just delete as you have been to the delete folder, but when you exit the Delete folder will be emptied for you, instead of you doing it manually.

Shawn, Thanks for your reply but I guess that you understand that what you proposed is different from what I asked for. I want to delete permanently (from the Inbox) only selected messages without going through two stages of confirmation every time. Cleaning the Deleted hence is not a soultion for me. "brink" wrote:

Yes. It will prompt you once but then it will delete them all. Permanently. steve "Hezi"

Hezi I have just changed from Outlook Express to WIndows Mail and found exactly the same problem. I understand exactly what you want to do and have been frustrated by the addition of separators on the menu bar when I used the SHIFT + [Delete Icon]. I have just tried using SHIFT + DELETE KEY and it works like it used to. Its not quite the same but at least there's a solution. Hope this helps.
