Thanks Barbara. That's how I set it at first for spam, but thought I should check before I delete, since sometimes I am a bit too quick on the draw with deletions... This does seem like the best way though to maintain a clean view in RMW, since there is no way to "easily" mark as read and remove from view. I am sure this can be done in AppleScript, but I don't have the power. For now, this solution works just fine.
