Basically, no. IMAP has no concept of "moving" mail, only "copying" mail. Thus, a "move" really is (copy+delete). I suppose smarts could be put in the IMAPd such that if a message has just been copied from folder A to folder B and then deleted from folder A that it won't put it in the Trash folder, but honestly, I think that quite a few people would find that unintuitive considering past (expected) behaviors. -- Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for dinner.
