J I didn't see those in the menus They are not menu options. You can configure a folder's delete options in its properties. There is a panel there to configure Alternate delete methods. This allows you to specify the movement of messages to a named folder (in my case, a folder in a special account called Archive) and to use the alternate delete method when purging the folder in question. -- Cheers -- //.arck D Pearlstone -- List moderator and fellow end user TB! v3.0.0.15 on Windows XP 5.1.2600 Service Pack 2 ' pgpWjl3EQahbP.pgp Description: PGP signature Current version is 3.00.00 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

TB getting slow, taking lots of memory (with lots of emails in store)
I have about 25k emails in about 20 accounts. I notice that it's getting slower and slower to start TB, or open a account/folder with a large number of emails. And lots of HD readings are involved when opening the heavily populated folders. I'm running a P3 800MHz. TB is taking from 70MB to 140MB memory constantly, always at the top in Task Manager if sorted against memory usage. Does this happen to other users, too? I'm a little concerned as the number of emails is ever growing and my PC gets less and less usable as long as I keep running thebat. Soon I'll have to have a dedicated PC for reading emails. I'm using 2.12. I hope TB will come up with a solution that accesses HD and uses memory in a smart way to make the footprint minimum.
