Oh, really! Must you be such a pill?

All that work when I've already demonstrated that the Modified date is
probably sufficient.

My deleted messages don't appear in the Deleted Messages folder - any ideas?

Are you holding down the Shift key while deleting? This would permanently
delete them

No, but thanks anyway. I've tried simply using the "X" symbol, keying
Control D, and pressing the delete key on the keyboard. The only way I can
get messages to go to the Deleted Messages folder is by MOVING the messages
there. There must be an answer somewhere...

Hi, Jane.

It looks as though you posted this as a Reply rather than as a New Post.
You may get more response by posting it as a New Post.

My understanding is that when you try to delete messages, they do disappear
from the Inbox, right?

Have you renamed your Deleted Items folder? (maybe they have lost their way)

Have you checked all your other folders - including Archive Folders, to see
if one of them is receiving your deletions? (you could mark everything in all
of them "read," and then watch for one of them to become highlighted when you
delete something that has not been read yet or that is marked "not read." )

If so, maybe there is a setting in the Organizer that moves deleted items
to...well, somewhere. That can be fixed with the Rules Wizard.

In the meantime, try posting this as a New Post with a subject line.
Someone with more experience than I have will respond. Be sure to mention
all the things you have already tried and eliminated as possible fixes.

Good luck!

Stephanie,

In support of your cause, I was delighted to find that I was not the only
one looking for a way to sort by delete date.
If deleting was meant to be permanent , I wonder why MS even bothered to
code a "Deleted Items" folder or the "Recylcle Bin". My guess is even the
gurus regreted a delete command occasionally and wanted to be able to
retrieve it...

Anyway, now to my question, I was not quite able to follow some of the steps
that were taken and with all the postings, I suppose I lost track.

Do yo have a condensed version of what you and Sue had worked out?

Thanks,

Vaunull

Hi!
I implemented this code - it's great - brilliant - thanks.
It seems to run sporadically though.
Even in one day, it tags the deleted date onto some outlook items, but not
others.
I've tried moving items back out into another folder and then putting them
back into the deleted folder. Sometimes this works, especially one by one,
but some items just don't pick up the tag and I don't see how they're any
diferent from other items that do.
I'm on Outlook 2003, Exhange Server 2003.
I've expoerted and re-imported my certificates in case an update didn't like
them.
Maybe it's to do with priorities on the network?
