You do this by: Tools > Options > Attachments > then check "Delete attachments when emptying Trash" That way the attachment doesn't stay in your attachment folder. Just a word of caution, if you get an attachment that you want to keep, but not the actual email, first move the attachment to another location, then delete the email. Debbie
