move to next email after deleting a email

I am using Outlook 2007. When I open an email and delete it, it takes me back
to the preview screen. I want it to let me view the next email in sequence,
rather than going back to the preview screen and then opening the next
sequential email. I hope I have described my dilemma to where someone will
know what I am speaking of. It is hard to actually describe what my problem
is. Previous versions of Outlook did what I am trying to do so I would think
2007 would also. It is a hassle to delete an email then go back to the
preview screen and open the next email.
 
it's a setting "after moving or deleting an open item.... return to the
Inbox" - there are some choices. I think it's at Tools | Options Email
Options Advanced email options. If not there, try the Other tab on Tools |
options.

The default was changed a few versions ago.


I hope this helps you at least a little bit!

I want to thank you for the response you sent below on the Outlook Discussion
group. I need to know if you can be more specific than "it's a setting" I
have looked and looked and I cannot find what I am looking for. It is such a
waste of time to deleat a message and then have to go back and open the next
message in sequintial order.

Did this ever get answered? I also would like outlook to move the next
most newest message rather than the next most oldest!!!
