There are many similar questions as mine, but the responses are all very old, too.

It appears that when I delete an email message, it goes to the Deleted Items mailbox.  Then, I have to delete it AGAIN from Deleted Items to get rid of it permanently.  It there a way to make this a single step versus two steps.  Or, to empty the Deleted Items mailbox automatically?  Schedules no longer work, so that’s not a solution.
