cedric duval's trash folder patch is useful for this if you're building your own mutt (or if it's already applied to the mutt on your system). http://cedricduval.free.fr/mutt/ while this (apparently) isn't something that the developers have wanted to add to mutt, it is a frequent request, and cedric's patch is much nicer than using macros. i can understand the 'i mean delete when i say delete' philosophy, but since i like to keep things around for a while but like to keep my mailboxes fairly small, i find trash folders very useful. -- Will Yardley input: william < @ hq . newdream . net . >
