Deleting emails

[Stephanie West]

I would like for the emails I delete to move to
the "Deleted Items" folder where they would be stored for
a period of time I sent (30 days, for instance) so that I
could retrieve them if necessary. This is something that
has been possible with our programs (Netscape, for
instance). Right now it seems that my only option is to
purge the deleted emails - but that deletes all of them,
even the ones that were deleted that day. I don't want
to have to manually drag deleted files to the "deleted
items" folder every so often. Instead, I'd like them to
go there automatically. Otherwise, why is that folder
there?

Stephanie, try this:

1-Tools > Options > Other. Uncheck Empty the Deleted Items folder upon
exiting. OK.
2-Right-click the Deleted Items icon and Properties > AutoArchive > Clean
out items older than 30 days > Permanently delete old items > OK.

That should do it.
