SUMMARY
The Mail administrator can use the Mail Administrator (ADMIN.EXE) program to restrict several user privileges. One of the privileges that can be restricted is the delete privilege.
This privilege only applies to Microsoft Mail for PC Networks, MS-DOS workstation. Microsoft Mail for Windows users can delete their mail messages from their Inbox (since their messages are in their .MMF files), even if they have not been granted the delete privilege. Furthermore, the messages will be successfully deleted from the .MBG file as soon as they are placed in the user's .MMF file. This is by design, to allow Mail for Windows users to work offline and control their own mail message file (MMF) storage.
