Both are correct if you mean "we normally/usually send". I'd use "deletion" in both.http://www.englishforums.com/English/UnsureOfWordOrder/cjrgm/post.htm#211571Tue, 24 Feb 2009 02:21:29 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:211571CalifJim2http://www.englishforums.com/English/UnsureOfWordOrder/cjrgm/post.htm#211571http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments12-211571.xmlWe send you the notice ten days before deleting the file. (Present habitual practice) We sent you the notice ten days before deleting the file. (Past action.) We will send you the notice ten days before deleting the file. (Future action.) You may substitute before we delete the file for before deleting the file , but don't use the deleting of the file !
