The problem isn't the defaults but rather that I *can't* change it later.   
I'm simply highlighting the menu entry 'Move to trash' and pressing the  
Delete key as per http://balsa.gnome.org/faq.html#faq27.  Other keys work,  
just not Delete.  It works in other GTK+ programs (e.g. Rox) but not in  
Balsa.
