Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew how to turn off the alert question that pops up when you try to delete an email.
("Are you sure you want to permanently delete these message(s)?).

It depends on the mail client you're using. Are you using Windows Mail that comes with Windows Vista, or are you using Microsoft Outlook?

If you're using Windows Mail, then there doesn't appear to be an option under Tools - Options to turn off that message.

If you're using Microsoft Outlook, then go to Tools - Options - Other and look in "advanced options" and you'll have the checkbox there you can un-check to remove that message.
