deleting messgaes marked for deleting



Hi mutt-users,
how can the messages been deleted when marked for deleting ?
When I leave the dir a message is displayed '....delete xxx messages ' but 
NOTHING is deleted ??
I inserted in my .muttrc file:
set delete=yes
set mh_purge=yes
When I reenter my maildir box, the messages are still there :(
Thanks for your help
