Hello Stephen,

Generally speaking, if you're using IMAP access, "deleting" means
"move to trash folder", so they're not quite gone yet. You still have
to "empty the trash" before the storage engine will be told to mark
the messages as deleted.

SL> I just deleted an IMAP folder with 7000+ messages in it (archive
SL> from old company) and then ran dbmail-util on it and it said that
SL> it found 2 messages marked for deletion, ran it again, it deleted
SL> those 2 messages and then found no more for deletion. Where are
SL> these emails?

SL> I'm terrified if DBMA now since I ran a cleanup through there and
SL> it wiped EVERY email I ever imported with any imap client whether
SL> it was kmail, outlook or thunderbird...

SL> What should I do to keep my DB clean?
