Is there a mod somewhere that does a better job of Deleting members? Everytime someone tries to Re-register on my board, the cannot becuase that e-mail has been
used before, i'm having to run manual code that changes all N/A e-mail address' to something else. |

Why are you allowing people to re-register if you've deleted them? The e-mail address is retained in the database when you delete a member specifically to prevent that member from signing up again with the same address.

| We are deleting those members who do not fill in all the requested fields. |

In that case, you'd probably be better off making those fields required rather than deleting the members who don't complete them. If, however, you are set on using this method, you can use an SQL query to update your members table and set M_EMAIL to a dummy address where M_STATUS is 0. You'll then need to modify the relevant query in pop_delete.asp to set M_EMAIL to this same address for any future deletees. Bear in mind, though, that this will reset the e-mail addresses of those you have deleted for legitimate reasons allowing them to sign up again.
