Thanks Shiromagius, but it looks like HTTP mail boxes work differently than POP3. If I manually delete a message from the in box, or move it to suspence, the message actually moves on the hotmail server to the same place. If I manually delete a message, it moves to the Trash bin in the Hotmail server. I think there is no way to automatically delete messages from the server in the hotmail system.
Another interesting thing. You cannot delete select messages individually from the trash bin on the hotmail server. The only choice is to delete them all. (normal, I guess)
What I said about Outlook above is wrong. I just didn't see the Hotmail folder which wasn't visible on my screen because of my many folders.
My conclusion is that HTTP mail is a good interim feature for a guy on the road, but I'll bge glad when I get settled and can again have a regurlar POP acct.
