Just one caveat that's worth noting regarding the "cut 'n paste" solution
and that is the number of items ultimately involved in the process. Have
found that Outlook can get particularly unhappy for large numbers (don't
know what the actual number is) and throwing "out of memory" errors or
causing addins to throw out error messages (i.e. OutlookSpy is one case in
point). Doesn't appear to have anything to do with how well endowed the
system itself is in terms of memory etc. Have run across this on more than
one occasion so it's certainly not a fluke occurrence nor is it related to
any specific version of Outlook since have had it occur on all versions
between O'2000 - O'2007. To be more exact however, the errors occurred when
highlighting the items ultimately intended for deletion.

Just mentioning this as a FYI.
