[Rules] Permanten delete messages

[Floor]

I am using Outlook 2007 as an IMAP client on a non-exchange mailhost.
Works oke, but the only annoying thing is that I set my rules on moving
messages to certain message folders, it does not permanently delete the
message by the rule, allthough I set that the message has to be moved and
then permanently deleted. So the messages stay visible with a line-thru
until I push the 'Purge Marked item on all Accounts'. What do I wrong here?

That is how deleting with IMAP accounts works. Use a view that hides deleted
messages so you don't see them and set the purge options to purge when you
change folders.

Thanks, can you tell me how to choose a view that hides deleted messages?
Your last suggestion I allready set in the account credentials.

look on the view menu or show the advanced tool bar and choose from the view
selector.
