WLM missing delete button on toolbar for some messages

I've noticed that some WLM e-mail messages do not have a "delete" button on
the message toolbar when opened - they can be deleted from the folder list
with the delete key, or can be deleted with "File / Delete message" or
<ctrl-D>, but when open (double clicked from the folder list), a "delete"
button does not appear. Only messages from certain people appear this way,
and it's consistent, so I'm pretty sure there's something in some messages
that prevent the "delete" button from popping up (or certain message formats
are triggering a WLM bug).

Anyone else seen this, or know if it's a known bug with WLM?

It's 100% reproducible in my environment (Windows Vista Premium, WLM).

Thanks!

Cliff

Re: WLM missing delete button on toolbar for some messages

Never seen this or heard any other reports about it.
Have you tried taking the delete button out of the toolbar and re-adding it?
Right click on the toolbar and select Customize. Then remove the delete
button. Ok everything and shut down WLM. Then re-open WLM and re-add the
delete button to the toolbar.
