I also would love it if all my "deleted" messages were stored in
a file named something like trash.  Yes, I know that I could save
them to "trash" but I'd like to just use the D key.  Anyone have
any ideas?

Thanks,

	If your setup the read-messages folder all of your messages that 
you look at will be stored there.  That way you will have to delete them 
twice. Once in the folder they are saved to, and once in the 
read-messages folder.  Saving your deleted messages to afolder like 
"trash" is just the same as not deleting them in the first place. If that 
is your real goal then just don't delete them

  closest thing that I can think without a patch:
  use delete
  after you finish, instead of using X or quiting, use  ; (select),
  then s(tatus), then d(elete). all your deleteted messages should
  be selected. use A(pply) and then S(ave) to trashcan. 
  doesn't take much.

  Hope it helps.
