spoke partially too soon. now when from hub i hit three vertical dots, then Settings, then Display and Actions, then Delete On, i can choose Handheld Only and that works fine. (Hooray blackberrry!) it works fine without any longer having to delete one message at a time. if i choose instead for a Prompt with each delete, i no longer have individual choice with each message to Delete from Server; instead, the only choice when Prompt is set is to Delete from Hub. i'll miss that message by message choice. but oh well, i can set generally to Handheld Only and go back to my old way of just worrilessly deleting any and everything not immediately important on my handheld and knowing i can look at all later on regular computer later.
