Re: Setting deleted flag before delivery

[Mark Crispin]

The short answer is: there is no option to deliver a message as deleted. 
As you discovered, your hack with X-Status won't work, especially not with 
messages in formats other than traditional UNIX (since X-Status is only 
with traditional UNIX format).

To do it right, you'll have to add a switch to dmail to set \Deleted, that 
works much like the existing -s switch that sets \Seen.

However, I question why you want to do this.  What's the point of 
delivering a message if it's going to be deleted?
