Perhaps I am missing something here. When I do this, the messages stay in the Mail Trash. I think that all the delete is doing is moving the messages to the Mail Trash, and doing nothing if already there.
Also, I have to use command shift (not just shift) to select a block of messages. PM is holding up just fine with the load. I wish the find options were better tuned, though: 1. Find should have a stop if you don't want to keep waiting for results. 2. View Only is too slow.
