Delete vs. Move to Deleted Folder

Question:
How do I have deleted messages go into the bit bucket instead of the Deleted folder?

Answer:
You didn’t indicate what version of Outlook you’re running, but the Outlook 2000 Rules Wizard has options for “Delete it,” which does what you’re indicating, and “Permanently Delete it,” which does what you’re asking for.
