I get spam that isn't routed directly to Deleted Items. I highlite it and
hit delete which sends to Deleted Iems, but the icon shows that the spam
message has been opened. Why is the spam message opened? I assume that it
shouldn't be opening this spam mail, so I have some concern that it is
getting opened on its way to the deleted folder.

It was in your Inbox when you highlighted it to delete it. Well, is the
Preview pane open for your Inbox? If so, when you highlighted it, you
opened it in the preview pane.
