I was having some issues with my provider (b Telstra - bigpond) in the way my e-mails were being processed through my Desk top and mobile phone. In adjusting my desk top e-Mail settings (Modzilla - Thunderbird) I now have no Delete option just a TRASH option are these the same or are they different ?? I usually send deleted to the delete option and them may go back and check them later or deleted the deletes en block or individually at my leisure . I don't want the system to automatically delete them when closing my session or after a set period of time . How can i reinstate the DELETE option on my e-Mails or check the settings for TRASH??
