AppleScript to empty Deleted Items folder?

P

Paul Berkowitz

Is there a way I can delete all the items in my Deleted Items folder via
AppleScript?

tell application "Microsoft Entourage" to delete every message in
deleted mail folder


If you mean an IMAP account's Deleted Items folder, deleted items are really
just marked for deletion. They can only be purged when you quit (or leave
IMAP folders if you set that setting, which is not possible by AS).
