Purging using Outlook 2003

[srm]

I'm using Outlook 2003 and just changed to start using IMAP. I had a
few questions on purging.

1. When I purge, it seems I can only purge one folder at a time. There
is no option to purge multiple folders at once. Is that correct?

2. There is no auto purge such as purge all items when I close Outlook
2003. Correct?

3. Is there an option to move a deleted email to the Trash folder
rather than just keeping it in the same folder and having it struck
out?

4. If there is no option to move a deleted email to the Trash folder,
is there a filter / setting / grouping, etc. that allows you to hide
deleted / struck out emails?

Thanks you

Shawn

1. Correct.
2. Correct. Outlook 2007 lets you purge when you change folders.
3. No.
4. You have two view options - one hides messages marked for deletion, the
other groups them at the bottom. Look on the view menu, arrange by, current
view (at the bottom).
