You can do this now in Netscape 6.2.1 (based on Mozilla 9.4) 1) First select a legitimate message that you want to read and then delete 2) After you have read it hold down your Cntl key and highlight all the unread "junk" messages you want to delete without viewing 3) Click on the Delete button 4) Click on File / Empty Trash They will be completely gone without having ever been "viewed" Hope that helps Matt > > 3.
