[ale] how do you delete IMAP server messages and not local copies

[Ron Frazier]

Hi Preston,

That's an interesting method. Wouldn't work for me though. I get 
thousands of messages from mailing lists and keep them in as an archive 
for future research. I appreciate you mentioning that though. Since 
you're up to 8 messages, sounds like it's working fine for you. Thanks 
for the note.

Sincerely,

Ron

(PS - If you email me and don't get a quick response, you might want to
call on the phone.  I get about 300 emails per day from alternate energy
mailing lists and such.  I don't always see new messages very quickly.)
