One of the nice things I can do on work machine (you know what OS) is inside the mail tool, I can hold shift and hit delete to skip moving the message to trash...it's just gone.

Can this be done it mac mail? Some stuff I just know needs to go and it's unnecessary to move to trash and have to delete it again.

Thx!
 
This tip doesn't do what you want but it does make deleting trashed messages MUCH faster. In Mail, after you've sent messages to the Trash, hit :apple:+K then Return. Poof! The messages are gone.
 
command + x should do the trick.

but the message(s) are still on the clipboard until you copy/cut something else
