Ilja,
So, does this mean that my client (outlook) isn't sending the correct
commands when I delete something, or is it operator error (should I be doing
something to trigger the delete)?
Thanks,
Peter Darley

db_expunge is called by the functions _ic_close() and _ic_expunge() in
imapcommands.c (so, this is only called when using IMAP).
Also, messages can be set to STATUS_DELETE using POP (when the client
uses the DELE command.
