Cheers I'm going to like this, I think. To be able to get rid of the stuff I know I don't need, but keep a buffer stock of list messages will suit me fine. I have an expire date set on the trash, so that I can go back and check how a thread started if I need to :) Anne -- Registered Linux User No.293302 Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

A new feature I didn't recognize. Dennis - do me a favour? Choose one that doesn't matter, then see if highlight+delete key deletes or trashes?

A new feature in kmail. I like it. Thanks to Poogle for the answer. -- Dennis M. linux user #180842 Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

Help is appreciated. Strange, Dennis, it has always worked for me (I'm not on 9.1 yet, so can't speak for that). I presume you mean that it disappears immediately, not 'on exit'? That's the only setting I can see that's related. My trash gets huge, so I set an expire date of 2 months, and run a manual expire about once a week.
