Sorry for my bad question. It was caused by knowledge of five other IMAP
servers, where delete on a message in folder (via thunderbird or any
other) implicate real delete in mailbox (without expunge).
Is there any way, how to set status=2 correctly? (without users compact
folders capability).
Something like autocompact folder planed in cron.

Hello,
if I try to delete some emails in my inbox (via thunderbird or outlook),
no-one email is really deleted.
Deleted email is in Thunderbird invisible, in Outlook is marked as
deleted (could be restored). But isn't way how to delete email directly
along with releasing space in INBOX.
Problem is somewhere around status column in dbmail_messages. Status
still reamain at 0 value (before and after delete) instead of value 2.
Because of false status value, "dbmail-util -pdy" doesn't work corretly.
Deleting a message in imap means set the deleted flag on this or that message.
So:
x login user1 pass1
x select INBOX
x STORE 1 +Flags (\Deleted)
will mark the message as to-be-deleted (dbmail_messages.deleted_flag = 1). In
thunderbird those are hidden. In Outlook they are crossed out.
If you add an imap command:
x EXPUNGE
messages are deleted as far as the imap server is concerned. If you run that
command, the status flag is set at 2. Those messages are no longer counted in
the quota summaries. But they still remain in the database until you run
dbmail-util -dy to queue them for purging, and dbmail-util -py to actually purge
them from the database.
