Outlook question
Is there a way to permanently delete certain emails without having to go through the deleted items folder?
For instance I have a folderfull of spam that I'd like to purge completely, as well as other spam the filter doesn't get that I'd like to just delete once without having to clean out my deleted items folder every couple weeks.
Re: Outlook question
On Outlook Express, under Tools-> Options, hit the Maintenance tab.
Just like the previous poster said, there is an option to empty the deleted folder on exit.
I don't know for sure if there is a "hard delete" option or not (aka holding shift when you hit delete to bypass the deleted folder or something along those lines). Maybe someone else can volunteer that info.

Yes, if you hold shift, it does a hard delete instead of into deleted items... if you have a Junk Mail folder, you can shift+delete the folder itself, then recreate it (or if it's like my mail filter, it will just recreate it when I open Outlook again).
