Rufus, I hope you remember that emptying trash *doesn't* actually delete
the e-mails from your "inbox", it just marks them for deletion and

They are not actually deleted until you compact your files!!

Wrong (just checked). Please don't give such false advice, especially if
it results in data loss without any undo possibility. The Empty Trash
command actually includes a Compact Folder call.

When did this action change?? Perhaps we users should have had it drawn
to our attention!!

As Beauregard already noted, what you wrote is probably true if read exactly. Empty Trash does in fact not touch the Inbox, only the Trash folder. For the latter it includes a Compact Folder call.

[It didn't appear to me that anyone could think that Empty Trash would affect other folders.]
