Delete stubborn junk mail messages in Mail Apps
I've been having problems with a stubborn junk email in my inbox in Mail: every time I deleted it, it would pop back up whenever I would go to another mailbox and back to the inbox. And this has been going on for over two month, and I've just been to busy to dig into the problem.

So today I tried something else: instead of deleting the email, I cut it using Command-X. Voila. It's gone for good.

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I, too, have some spam that won't delete. Now it will!

I, too, was plagued by an undeletable "undeliverable message notification" which was resolved by your tip. Thank you!
