Just one thought John, are you deleting the messages completely from the
Deleted Items folder? When you delete a message from the inbox, it puts the
message in the Deleted Items folder so it isn't really deleting the message.
You have to delete the message while in the Deleted Items folder to
completely get rid of it.

Forgive me if you already know this.
