Thanks Andy, this gives me a better picture. Myself I would like an option for a scheduled applescript (how often do I forget to run my backup script since iScript no longer is freeware!). Knowing CTM, they might listen in to our discussion and in one of the next releases the requested trashing option will be built into PM without hinting to us of the forthcoming feature (lol, know on wood for those who want it).
