I've read the FAQ and maillist, and hope that I have not missed
the answer to this question. My Mozilla IMAP client seems to be
working in my tests. I can create folders, sent mail is moved to
my newly created Sent folder, and deleted messages disappear.

But I can not create a Trash folder. From reading the maillist, it
looks like IMAP reserves that folder name, and instead of moving
anything, simply marks the messages as deleted in place, where
they sit until expunged.

The question is, if there is no Trash folder, then how can I look
at my list of deleted messages prior to expunging them?

If there is no method for this, then I assume that a work around
would be to create a new folder, say "Garbage" and tell my client
to move deleted messages to that folder. Then when I want to clean-up
that folder, I would have to manually delete the messages there.

Is all this right?

Thanks!
