Pete,

No I didn't mean when I download them to delete them off of the server
I meant after the email was downloaded into Evo, when I hit delete it
would just cross them out instead of just moving them to trash. 

But I see now... I have to do the CTRL + E to offically move them to
the trash ( in a kinda logical way ). I noticed if I mark the emails
for deletion, and you just close evo, it just unmarks them for deletion
and I have to remark them for deletion.. I found that out the hard way
earlier today. 


Thanks,
Chris
