/// <summary>
/// Sets the delete flag for the specified email. Email will be deleted by calling 
/// Mailbox.Purge(), or upon logout.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="message">Message to set the delete flag for.</param>
public void DeleteMessage(ImapMessage message)
{
    message.Update(true, ImapFlags.Deleted);
}

Visual Basic

''' <summary>
''' Sets the delete flag for the specified email. Email will be deleted by calling 
''' Mailbox.Purge(), or upon logout.
''' </summary>
''' <param name="message">Message to set the delete flag for.</param>
Public Sub DeleteMessage(ByVal message As ImapMessage)
