Windows Mail: Delete/Purge works differently in IMAP

Thanks so much Steve! I didn't find that maintenance area.

I think Windows Mail is ok IMAP-wise, though I am very new to it. I just set
it up in OE6 2 weeks ago for the first time. My main emai client is Lotus
Notes and I was using POP3, which was fine for me... don't get that much mail.

Off topic, on another question i added... Playback in mp11 is distorted.. I
hear little popping sounds, which weren't there b4 in XP using mp11. I hear
the pops on all types of music whether ripped or burned.

Any thoughts??? Would love to hear from anyone about the media player pops.
Running Vista RC1.

I was asking because I use it for IMAP with several accounts, and it seems
pretty poor compared to OE6 (and I'm running Vista64 RTM!). It has
improved as the Vista builds have gone by.

My only guess would be that I don't think it was an RTM WMP11 in Vista
RC1, and that you'd need to try Vista RTM as soon as you can.

Thanks again... I don't know what RTM means. What should I run?

You mentioned running Vista64. I thought i could install that version on my
eMachine t6522 w/ an athlon 64bit processor.. but it wouldn't install.. so i
installed the 32bit version. What am I not understanding? Why wouldn't it
install the 64bit disk.?

RTM = "released to manufacturing" and is often shorthand when referring to
Vista final (build 6000). Vista "rtm'd" earlier this month.

It is possible that you need a BIOS update.

RTM is shorthand for "Released To Manufacturing". It refers to the
completed version of Vista.

It's possible that although your machine is built around an Athlon 64, the
rest of the system might not be fully 64-bit capable, though this seems
unlikely. As Colin has mentioned, you might need a BIOS update. Or it
might just have been a bad x64 download/burn.
