Marta ,Command is the Apple key
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command_key
The the K key on your keyboard.
So select your Trash can in the mail program then hold down the
command key then the K key you will then see a dialog box that says.
Are you sure you want tot erase the delete messages in all of your
accounts.
Hit OK and that will delete all your messages permanently.

Can't you use the "cut" key and do the same thing? When you say
command +K I never know whether you mean I also have to use the
shift key, since the + key demands a shift. My hands are not that
nimble. So I always feel I get by with "cut" Is that correct?

What the rebuilding of the mail box does is allow mail to
associate all the emails that the mail data base is keeping track
of. While get a lot of email i never keep anything much in mail
and use Command+K to delete all emails in the trash after every
time i read all my mail a simple delete does not stop the mail
database from keeping track of your mail.

Ed,
Question. I began walking through the mailboxes and with each
one I did the "rebuild". For instance in one folder I had 14
messages, after doing the rebuild I had 76 messages. The same
type thing happened on several boxes. What is going on and where
are these messages coming from if they have been deleted and then
removed from the trash many months ago?

Ed,
How do you "rebuild" your mailbox? Is that like "Resetting
Safari?"

Another tip on mail is to rebuild your mailbox every so often.
It
depends on how much mail you get and how much you delete. For
me I
rebuild my mailboxes once a month.
