I am running outlook 2002, I have a folder for aol (free mail). When I
delete a message it only strikes a line through the message. It will NOT
permenatly delete the message, I cannot even move the message to another
folder, like the "deleted items" folder.

How can I delete these messages from my view like the other accounts I have?

Look at the Edit, Purge menu.
