If accidental deletion of mailboxes is what bothers you, you can configure the mailclients to move mailboxes to below Trash (like thunderbird does).
That's not always possible.
If you all think we cannot live without stepped deletion of mailboxes, what is required is: - break the foreign key restraint between messages and mailboxes - setup a trigger that will update the status field of all messages when a mailbox is deleted. - make sure the integrity check run by dbmail-util no longer delete unconnected messages. So no this will not happen in the 2.2. code, but it may be done in 2.3
Sounds fair. I'm not that worried either, although it would be a nice feature and would be consistent with the deletion of individual messages.
It was a surprise for me when I found out that the stepped deletion process could be bypassed. I think I might not be the only one, maybe a warning should be somewhere for admins?
The restoring of messages (mostly accidental deletes by users) via simple SQL instead of running for the backups has been a valuable dbmail feature so far, too bad this can't be used in the case of mailboxes.
