Can Outlook 2003 automatically delete junk e-mails when exiting (like
"Deleted Files and Folder)? If not, wouldn't that be a good idea?

No, it can't, but you can set up autoarchive to clean it out regularly.

Hello Sue,
Thanks for the reply. I am disappointed that the answer was a simple "No"
with a procedure that can only be described as avoiding the question. Also,
you did not answer my other two questions: 1. Wouldn't this be a good idea
and; 2. Is this something that will be added?
I can't be the only one who has requested / suggested this. It is a simple
fix and I quite honestly wonder why it wasn't included from the git go.

Would you have preferred a simple No with no alternative solution at all?
I personally would not use such a feature if it existed.
Only Microsoft would know if it plans to add such a feature. I doubt that it would make the cut.

Ms. Mosher:
There is no need to be insulting.
You ARE Microsoft. You are on the Microsoft payroll to assist MS's customers.
Whether or not YOU would use a feature is irrelavent to this exchange.
Either you can answer the questions or not. If the answer is a simple "No"
then they don't need you. Auto-archive is an alternative, but it begs the
question.
Further, junk e-mail is the primary source for PC invasions and the ability
to review and then automatically delete them on exiting Outlook (even
Microsoft's own "bcentral.com" B2B portal is recognized by Outlook as Spam)
is a feature I'd bet millions of us customers would use. "Make the cut"
indeed!
BTW, I am sorry if you are having a bad and just took it out on me. Perhaps
you should consider another line of work, your insults were most unwarranted,
unwelcome and reflects badly on Microsoft, Turtleflock and you?
Most sincerely,
Wes Dixon

There is no need to be insulting.
Quite true, which is why I'm surprised at the tone of your latest post.
Perhaps you are unaware that these forums are not actively monitored by Microsoft and that all discussions are peer-to-peer, in other words user-to-user. I am most definitely not on the Microsoft payroll to assist Microsoft's customers. I dip into these forums on my own time. My answers are based on both what Microsoft tells the world and what my own experience and that of other Outlook users has told us.
You asked whether the feature would be a good idea. That is a matter of opinion. I gave you my opinion. How is that irrelevant?
I did answer the question. The answer was No.
What "they" are you referring to?
As a fellow user who has had to deal with this issue, I thought you might appreciate knowing what other options are available. Apparently, I was wrong. Perhaps others who read these forums will find the information useful, though.
I would be very curious to hear of any real-world instances in which junk mail was used to "invade" a PC running Outlook. I haven't heard of any in years.
You didn't mention reviewing junk mail in your earlier post. That's an area where personal preference varies. I know people who spend a lot of time reviewing their junk mail. I also know people who "set it and forget it."
Since I made no personal statements about you, I am at a loss to know how I could possibly have insulted you.

About all I can say is "Wow."
Your debating skills are quite well developed.
I, unfortunately, don't have the time you do, so...
You win. I lose. Microsoft loses.

You're right about one thing. You don't have the time Sue does.
It is a safe assumption that you have more.
I've seen Sue's schedule. It's worse than 90% of the physicians in my
practice.
The only insults in this post have been yours, not the least of which is
your implication that people who post here have a lot of free time.
