Delete email in one step.

Email Client: Exchange

In Outlook I could do a <shift delete> and the email would be gone - period. It was not in the Delete Folder. Does anyone know if that is possible in Entourage? I tried several keys + delete and can't get anything to work. The email always ends up in the Deleted Items folder. I want to delete the email once! From a new MAC user/convert and glad of it.

I've never tried this on Exchange but it should work. I use the shortcut
Option-Control-D. If you aren't familiar with how to set shortcuts, see the
tutorials on using AppleScripts. It's in part 1.
