Found a solution to my own problem...if I set the account to not keep the mail on the server in thunderbird preferences then it deletes as it goes. Saves me a step of needing to log into the website each time (or switch windows in this case). I can move them back to inbox (in large batches) after I am done or just let them poof from delete. :) Would be nice if it downloaded all the unread messages at once but this is certainly a better method.
