Hi Gavin, Its been a while since ive used this option (since it caused us issues in the past!!!)
>From memory, it did actually physically delete the files from the server.. however we noticed that if the project contained more than 1 publishing target (say you had a connection to a staging/dev server) - it would delete ALL pages from all other targets that were not the 'default' target. I dont know if this has been fixes/addressed in later versions (i.e. 7.5 - 9 etc).. but im not game to give it another go!!!
