Default Deleting a message item permanently

Sorry, missed a call to MailItem.Delete:

strUniqueSubject = "MsgToBeDeletedRightNow"
set Msg = Application.ActiveExplorer.Selection(1)
Msg.Subject = strUniqueSubject
Msg.Save
Msg.Delete
set Dumpster = Application.Session.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderDelet edItems)
set Msg = Dumpster.Items.Find("[Subject] = '" & strUniqueSubject & "'")
if not (Msg Is Nothing) Then
Msg.Delete
End If

Even a custom subject would do

strUniqueSubject = "MsgToBeDeletedRightNow"
set Msg = Application.ActiveExplorer.Selection(1)
Msg.Subject = strUniqueSubject
Msg.Save
set Dumpster = Application.Session.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderDelet edItems)
set Msg = Dumpster.Items.Find("[Subject] = '" & strUniqueSubject & "'")
if not (Msg Is Nothing) Then
Msg.Delete
End If

Stamp it with your own custom property, find it in the Deleted Items
folder,
then delete it again.

Thank you Sue Mosher for you reply.

In fact, the form we have developed is to get the approval from
department
managers. It has an 'approve' and a 'deny' button. once clicked on on
of
these buttons a new reply mail is sent and the custom from is deleted
from
inbox using 'item.delete'. we want to ensure that the users should
completely
not have access to this item, once approval is given. When it is in
deleted
items, still it is possible to open and click the approval button
again.

Is there any work around you can suggest.

Thank you
Bilal

When "item.delete" vbscript is given, the item is moved to 'deleted
items'
folder. How can the item be deleted permanently? Any help is very
much
appreciated.
