Okay then how do I bind a key to the menu Message-->Delete then? I don't
typically use my mouse when using Claws having to use a drop-down menu
every time is awkward. But seriously? I choose Claws 6 or 7 years ago
simply because it was the only light weight UNIX email client that did a
halfway decent job talking IMAP. Now they've thrown the baby out with
the bath water in favor of aping crap mail clients... Fine I'll just
maintain a 3.10 fork myself .14 gives me nothing I need anyway... 

Thanks for your help though.
