How can an incoming message be automatically deleted when I reply to it?

Can't really be done and I'm not sure it would be wise to have it
do so.

The reason I say this is as the example below will illustrate:

- I open message sent to me.
- I click the reply, this causes the auto-delete to occur at the same time
as my new Reply is created, and the original email is deleted.
- I decide after a moment that I am not ready to reply yet.
- I close my new reply and select to not save it.
- Now I do not have the original (I deleted it automatically)
- I did not save my started reply.

I do have Outlook Close the original message when I select to reply
to it.
