Put code in your CustomAction event handler to check the parent folder, and
if it's in the Deleted Items folder, cancel the action and show a MsgBox to
the user.

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.

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.
