MS outlook + IMAP (deleting emails)

G

G.K.

Hi,

I have a problem with deleting emails in my outlook which is connected
to IMAP server.

Each email which i click delete on becomes crossed with the line but
never disappears from folder. The same situation is with the filtered
messages - these ones go to appropriate folder but are still kept in
INBOX folder with crossed line.

Do you have any ideay what could be done to clean this mess up in my
INBOX folder?

Thanks in advance

That is no problem, but the normal behaviour of IMAP accounts.
You have to purge the mails (Edit -> Purge) then they'll disappear.

If you use Outlook 2007 you can set up in account options that mails which
are marked as deleted are purged automatically when switching to another
folder.
