+ I would suggest using the '$' command for this function.  Mark the letters 
+ for deletion and then execute the '$' (resyncronization of the mailbox)
+ command.  This will prompt you for:
+ 
+ 	Delete mail (y/n)? y
+ 	Keep mail in mailbox (y/n)? y
+ 
+ Then it will resync the mailbox my rereading it in.  This is the intended
+ function (I think).

I suggested "c"hanging folders to the current folder because "$" resync
didn't seem to work for me in elm 1.5 on Ultrix 1.2.
