I believe, the --delete option will doi the trick for me. I want to sync two mail folders, so that I see my mails in Plasma and also in Trinity, so that I regularlöy sync tzhe plasma-(kmail)-folder to trinitý- (kmail)-folder with a cronjob. Sop, whern I delete a mail in plasma, it shall also be deleted in the next sync in trinity. So I am sure, as you described, the --delete option will do this. Thanks for the fast solution.
