MS Office Forum / Outlook / Interop / November 2003Deleting Email
The boss wants to be able to push a button and delete email without it going to the deleted folder. Don't have a clue how one would go about doing this. Using Outlook 2002 with Exchange 2000. Email is stored on the Exchange Server, we are in a native Windows 2000 domain. Thanks so much in advance, Scott There is the <shift>+<delete> key combination. However, this is a hard delete and will make data recovery hard, especially if you do not use 30 day retention on your Exchange Server. I wouldn't recommend it. Why not just set his deleted folder to delete all items on log off?

Thanks so much in advance, Scott Thanks Nikki, The boss mainly wants to delete spam, and since he typically leaves his Outlook on (minimized) for weeks on end the empty deleted folder on exit from Outlook wouldn't work. This came to the forefront when he picked a mailbox size and when I implemented it, he was one that was over the limit.
