Hi Chris-
The problem is that this will only empty the Deleted Mail Folder and not 
the SPAM Folder.

You see I have Emailer programmed to put all SPAM emails into a folder 
marked SPAM and then I can review this Folder and make sure it does not 
have non-spam mail in it.  Then the rest of the SPAM mail I'd like to 
Delete.  I guess I could do this every once in a while but I thought it 
might be good to run a script to automatically transfer the SPAM mail to 
Deleted Mail Folder which I have already programmed to delete mail that 
is ten days old.

regards,
doug
