Default RE: SyncToy - Mirror Left Folder

Hi George
I love the look of this tool and wish to use it to replace using Robocopy.
However, I have the same issue as this thread. I want to "mirror" folders
between two computers left to right or right to left. But it does not
recognise deletions of files.
So I would put my vote in for the addition of this "mirror" functionality in
the next release please. I can then use it as a replacement for the robocopy
utility.
Until then sorry cannot use this tool with confidence.

Thanks.
