MS ignored me for a LONG time when I kept complaining that Outlook
online never actually deleted messages (even though you moved them to
Trash, then went to Trash and deleted them again, you could still
resurrect the motherfuckers.)  I complained about it every few months
and nothing was done.  I gave up.

That was years ago.  I just checked, and you can still "recover" stuff
you tried to delete 2x already.  I just "recovered" old emails from 2.5
months ago, even though the screen says "Items in this folder will be
deleted in 30 days."

Gawd.  Just delete them already!  I HATE that kind of handholding.

The trash system is already a safety net, you don't need to keep it

Microsoft is just trying to be all-inclusive, but at the expense of
common sense it would appear.  I had actually been using the Outlook
for Windows beta before I flushed Win11, it worked well with my MS
account's email as well as my Google account's, but having Edge and
Chrome to access the respective accounts under Linux is just as good.
It wasn't the same Outlook that was included in the Office suite of
software.

I just use mutt to connect to a gmail server. If I need to sign something I'll
use gmail in a browser.

Every few days I have to d d d d d d d to clean out mutt. But I wouldn't be
surprised to find that gmail, like crimosoft, saves stuff 4ever.
