Nevermind, I figured it out after a test. Just seemed confusing at
first. Apparently, if both columns are checked, a message is first
received and THEN deleted. Cool.

The two different options mean different things.  The receive is if
you want to download the mail to your local mail folders, while the
delete is if you want to delete it from the server.  They are
independent of each other and perform two different actions.  For
example, you can delete mail from the server without downloading it,
or visa versa.

Yeah, I figured it out after first unchecking the boxes in the Delete
column and downloading messages, and then going back and downloading
messages with the Delete boxes checked. It was clear to me after that
test that with checkboxes in both the Receive and Delete columns
checked that a message will be received and then deleted.

Now one more question - is it possible to set the column widths
permanently in the Message Dispatcher? I'm already getting tired of
adjusting them each time the MD is invoked.

I am not sure, I've never tried.  I can normally get away with the
widths as they are as I normally only use it to kill spam.  It may be
one of those windows that doesn't record its settings.
