You can use the "Bindings..." menu at the top of the main
exmh window to changed the "Simple Edit" bindings.  Find
the box labeled "backspace"; I recommend that the text in the
box look like:
 <Control-h> <Key-BackSpace> <Key-Delete>

In addition, you might want to make the "delwordback" field look like:
 <Meta-h> <Meta-Key-BackSpace> <Meta-Key-Delete>

After you Save these changes, your Delete key should do the
right thing inside of sedit.
