Delete message

When deleting a message in Outlook 2003 the message doesn't disappear from
Inbox, but remains with a line across the text. How can I change this so the
message will disappear from Inbox?

Are you using a IMAP server? I think you have to reconnect to delete the
message from the server to fully delete it.

You're using an IMAP account. You can't change this behavior. You have to
use Edit>Purge Deleted Messages.
