Outlook 2003: Purge messages in IMAP box programmatically

[smart.spooky]

Hi experts,

I basically need to create a rule (and I suppose an associated macro)
in Outlook 2003 which would automatically purge all already deleted
messages in IMAP box. Any ideas, links etc would be really
appreciated.


Cheers

This clicks the menubar button for you. I don't know what kind of automatism
you have in mind.

Sub PurgeDeletedMessages()
On Error Resume Next
Dim Bars As Office.CommandBars
Dim Btn As Office.CommandBarButton

Set Bars = Application.ActiveExplorer.CommandBars
Set Btn = Bars.FindControl(, 5583)
If Not Btn Is Nothing Then
Btn.Execute
End If
End Sub

You could edit the menu bar and add the Purge Deleted Items command to the
bar.
