[KLUG Members] Purging Mail In Firefox

Yes.  But the orignal question - "Is there a keystroke in Firefox (like
Evo's Ctrl-E) to purge a mailbox of deleted messages."

Emphasis on "keystroke".

For users processing a high volume of messages having to use the mouse
isn't an acceptable answer; taking their hands of the keyboard makes
them very grumpy.

These users also don't use "Trash",  deleted messages stay in the INBOX
marked as deleted (lined-out in most mail clients, including TB) until
purged.  They've got very good reasons for doing it this way and they
wouldn't change even if they didn't.
