Hi All,

I'm am trying to get the behavior such that using an courier IMAP account a user on Outlook or Outlook Express can delete an email and have it move to their "Deleted Items" folder. The default behavior of the line and permanently deleted with "purge" is not so good. I'm under the impression that this is possible
somehow, perhaps a workaround?

Unfortunately, when a client connects to the server, the server is not capable of hacking back into the client and reprogramming it to work differently.

Check Outlook or Outlook Express documentation for information on how to configure it to behave the way you want.

I have set my
IMAP_TRASHFOLDERNAME="Deleted Items"  and
IMAP_MOVE_EXPUNGE_TO_TRASH=0

That's not going to do anything. The first setting sets the name of the folders whose messages will be purged after a certain amount of intervals. The second setting turns off the automatic movements of messages that are purged from other folders into the designated trash folder.
