just set up outlook 2007. when i try to delete email it only strikes a line
thru it and I noticed that there is no deleted folder in the folder list. How
do I send my deleted mail to this folder after I create it?

The strikethrough of deleted items is normal when using IMAP. It identifies
items that are *eligible* for deletion whenever you get around to next
synchronizing your e-mail client with your mailbox. Eligible items need to
get purged from the mail server, not just your e-mail client, so both stay
in sync for the deletion. You can manually do a Purge but that needs to
connects to your mailbox to do the sync, or you just wait until the next
scheduled mail poll to sync your e-mail client and mailbox.
