Summary: Outlook will not remove read messages from server

Initial Comment:
After installing Spambayes on outlook 2000 the 
advanced properties of 'Remove message from server 
when deleted from deleted items' no longer works.

Now all the emails are saved on the server regardless of 
the fact that I have deleted them from the deleted 
items folder.

This means all the spam that spambayes saves me from 
seeing in my inbox, still takes up space on my mail server.

I must leave a copy on the server, I have it set to 
delete all emails 5 days after download regardless of 
them being saved. I must do this because I read my 
email from different locations. Some emails need to be 
saved on different machines.

The emails are not getting deleted after this 5 day 
period either, outlook never, ever removes items from 
the server, this really needs to be looked into and fixed.

Are you using personal folders and connecting to an exchange 
server? If the messages are copied to personal folders (.pst) 
then the "remove from server" command won't work.  
Perhaps you can create an autoArchive event to remove 
messages after 5 days to resolve this.
Take a look at Outlook Help, searching for "delete copies" 
without the quotes.
