Change that line to
olMail.DeleteThis will move the email to your Deleted Items folder. You can set Outlook to automatically empty this folder when you quit the application, or you can add code to your macro to empty it.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click() Dim olApp As Object Dim olMail As Object Dim olItems As Object Dim ns As Object Dim olFolder As Object Dim olFolderSub As Object Dim olInbox As Object Dim i As Long Dim j As Integer Dim Strfolder As String Dim FilePath As String Set olApp = GetObject(, "Outlook.Application") If Err.Number = 429 Then Set olApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application") End If Strfolder = "C:\Work Area\OutlookAttachments" Set ns = olApp.GetNamespace("MAPI") Set olFolder = ns.Folders("xyz@company.com").Folders("Inbox").Folders("Work in Progress (FC)") Set olInbox = ns.GetDefaultFolder(6) Set olItems = olFolder.Items For i = olItems.Count To 1 Step -1 Set olMail = olItems.Item(i) If olMail.Attachments.Count > 0 Then For j = 1 To olMail.Attachments.Count FilePath = Strfolder & "\" & olMail.Attachments.Item(j).Filename olMail.Attachments.Item(j).SaveAsFile FilePath Next j End If olMail.UnRead = False olMail.Delete Next i Set olFolder = ns.Folders("xyz@company.com").Folders("Inbox").Folders("Deleted Items") Set olItems = olFolder.Items For i = olItems.Count To 1 Step -1 Set olMail = olItems.Item(i) olMail.Delete Next i Set olFolder = Nothing Set olItems = Nothing Set olMail = Nothing Set olApp = Nothing End Sub

It doesn't delete the unread emails as far as I could understand. It has to be read in order to be considered as filed in the folder.
Mark all your e-mails as read and then run through the code, maybe it'll work :))
It's just an idea, but who am I? I just know that I don't know
