[Samba] Write access doesn't grant delete access?!

Hi all,
I've got these permissions set on a folder:
$ getfacl htdocs
# file: htdocs
# owner: root
# group: users
user::rwx
group::rwx
group:DOMAIN\134htdocs_access:rwx
mask::rwx
other::r-x
The idea being that any users in the "htdocs_access" group in Active
Directory will have full access to this "htdocs" folder, without
interfering with the real owner/group of the folder (which the web
server uses.)
This seems to work fine, except that any files I create through Windows
Explorer I can't delete again (I can edit them and create more files,
but I can't delete anything.) Viewing properties on the file indicates
that the DOMAIN\htdocs_access group doesn't have Delete permission (the
Delete checkbox is unticked) but the other permissions seem fine.
I didn't realise that Samba treated Delete access separately to Write
access - how do I grant Delete access on a folder?
Thanks,
Adam.
