IMP is either pop or imap.  You are probably using IMAP for IMP.  It would
probably be best if you used the same on both.  IMAP with IMP has either mark as
deleted and the do the purge deleted, or send to trash.  I would send to trash
in IMP and empty the trash once in a while.  Outlook won't know the difference
and will just see that the 'moved to trash e-mail' is gone.
