I don't know enough about DBMail's internals to interpret the implications of the second part of your reponse.

When you say "message table entries", what data is that? And "physmessage blocks"? Are they the actual messages themselves? If so, retaining those is fine for papertrailing, and I'd assume the path/name of the mailbox they were in is there as well, so if need be, that can be reconstructed?

This is already the case for normal message deletion. The dbmail-util tool is used to actually purge messages from the database.

The exception is if a user removes a mailbox -- in that case, all messages table entries are removed (the physmessage blocks, however, continue to remain in the database until dbmail-util is used to clear them out).

Is it possible to configure DBMail to not delete messages that a user marks as deleted, but only mark them as deleted so they are deleted as far as the user is concerned? We need to retain messages even after a user deletes/expunges them from their client.
Thanks,
