It gets a "strike-through" font but doesn't go away.

Yes, it is IMAP. And I have found one answer, it's under the View menu but
in a not-obvious place:

View | Arrange By | Current View | Hide Messages Marked for Deletion

Thank you for your reply Gordon, is this what you were going to say?

No because that doesn't delete them, it only hides them.
To physically delete them you need to do Edit-Purge,but be aware, items
deleted like this do NOT go into a Deleted Items folder - they are
permanently deleted at once.

Click EditPurge Deleted Messages or change your view to "Hide Messages
Marked for Deletion"
