chris,
Yes, that will work, but it's not a solution -- it's a work around at
best -- and not a very satisfactory one. It's *MUCH* too slow. If I
only got a couple dozen messages a day, it might be ok, but this list
alone can generate as much as 100 messages in a day and it's not the
only list to which I subscribe. Just for instance, I went through
over 1000 (yes, there's 3 zeroes there) messages today and I could
never have done that using your suggestion. Hitting CTRL-D and having
the next message begin reading is critical to efficient processing of
email.

Hi listers! I've got the sollution to the problem a lot of you seem
to be
having with deleting messages within Outlook Express 5. It's quite
simple
actually. Let's say you've just read a message that you want to
delete. go
back into the list view of messages by either pressing escape or alt
plus
f4. Then just select the message you want to delete, chances are
it'll be
the one you just opened, and then either press control plus d, or the
delete
key, this is the first one on the bottom row of the 6-pack on a
Windows
style keyboard. In either case, you should hear, "message deleted, and
that's it! Keep in mind that you're in the list view when you delete
your
message, and not within the body of the message itself. I've used
this
method for quite a while, and it works great!
Hope this helps
Chris
