You can go to Tools-Options-Other- Advanced Options and click the "warn before permanently deleting items" box. Click OK. Put a check mark in "Empty the deleted items folder upon exiting". This will notify him before he closes Outlook if he has deleted any messages. Unfortunately it will also delete his stuff if he saves thing in the Deleted items folder. You could always delete something, and tell him to always answer No when it asks to empty the folder. I know this is a work around, but it is the only way that I know. Hope this helps. Jeff.

Request from silly mouse happy user (my husband). His tech guys can't answer this one and I'm too busy to dig.
