Re: Move junkmail to deleted

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

"Autoarchive" was the clue. I got the desired settings by:
Junk E-Mail - Properties - Autoarchive,
Clean out items older than 1 day,
Permanently delete old items.

(Your additional explanations on the grammatical reference of "too"
and the potential misunderstandings for a native speaker who expects a
second language speaker to correctly follow the sophisticated rules
for the usage of "too" are very interesting. Have you been a language
teacher? I promise to improve my English ... before we all got to
learn Chinese ...)

move items from Junk Mail to the Deleted Items?

Outlook version? Account type?

Version 2003 and 2007.
Account type pop3, as mentioned.

Only required because above poster used QUOTED-PRINTABLE format.
When posting to newsgroups, do NOT use quoted-printable format.
* Not all NNTP clients handle quoted-printable format.
- Some users still use console-mode (non-GUI) NNTP clients.
- The long lines may not wrap properly.
- Scrolling is needed if the long line does not get wrapped.
- The long line may get truncated at the window's width.
- Quoted-printable format uses special character sequences for
logical formatting. View the raw source of your post. Text-
only clients may show that encoding when viewing your post.
* Quoting levels get mangled, especially for multiple replies.
* In replies, there is no clear delineation of content.
- Cannot tell what content is from the original poster and
what is from the respondent.
- Makes impossible to determine who said what when a reply
inserts comments inline with the quoted content.

As a result of using quoted-printable (via Google Groups), I had to
edit the Sven's and Milly's posts to show proper indentation (and
change Milly's use of "|" to ">" for the quoting character).

POP3, as mentioned? As mentioned was "I want items that I deleted in
Outlook to be deleted in my pop account, too." Well, "too" means that
you have some OTHER account than a POP account. If you meant when you
delete them locally in Outlook that you also want them deleted up in
your mailbox on the mail server, that is the default behavior of POP3.
When you poll your POP3 mailbox and then download any new e-mails,
they get deleted up on the server; that is, your e-mail client does a
RETR (retrieve) command to get the e-mails and then issues a DELE
(delete) command to get rid of them up in your mailbox. YOU must have
changed the default configuration to enable the option to leave
messages up on the server, so disable that option. Time to get
acquainted with the various options in Outlook by looking.

To automatically get rid of old items in the Junk and Deleted Items
folder, read Outlook's help on how to use auto-archiving. You can set
auto-archiving on a folder to delete items in that folder that over N
days old, where N is whatever you want for a holding interval. If you
delete the item, items in the Junk folder get moved the Deleted Items
folder, and items in the Deleted Items folder get permanently deleted.
Or, rather than have the junk move into deleted and then later get
deleted from there, you could select to permanently delete the item.
That means junk items will get immediately deleted and not get moved
anywhere, like the Deleted Items folder.

Auto-archiving is a 2-part process. You need to enable the global
option for auto-archiving. Then right-click on a folder, Properties,
and enable auto-archiving on that folder. You need the global option
enabled to have auto-archiving get performed anywhere and you need the
local option on a folder to specify it happens on that folder. This
is much like you need the master breaker on to have electricity
delivered anywhere in your house and then need to use individual wall
switches to determine where you deliver it for room lights.
