Sounds like you are either using a MAPI email service or are on Exchange
with the delivery location being your Mailbox, not Local Folders. You need
to purge them. There's a menu item (I think in Send and Receive?) that
will purge your deleted items. (I'm not on Windows at the moment so can't
tell....)

You mean IMAP, rather, correct?

unsolicited mail sent to my personal account will be deleted without
