(as a reply to your mail)
I'm not subscribed to the mailing list, but I just read your thread
regarding this plugin.
It seems to me that the Shift-Delete function you are referring to
in Thunderbird just bypasses the built-in move-to-trash-on-delete
function, but on the server-side is identical to any other regular
delete action (flag the message as deleted, followed by an expunge
later on, probably after closing the mail client) and is thus copied
to the trash folder by my plugin.
I can't think of anything to distinguish this behavior from a normal
delete action by any other mail client and using Shift-Delete in
Thunderbird (server-side), if you know one, please let me know and I
will try to implement it.
hi Lex,
I don't know quite a lot about IMAP.
I just know courier and cyrus and how the way they work with TB.
With them TB expunge the message if I delete it by SHIFT+DEL.
What I can see with courier is if I press DEL, it marks the message as
deleted and copy it to Trash. I say this, because it leaves the marked
message in the mailbox (maildir) and for example I can see and undelete
it by mutt.
If I press SHIFT+DEL, it does not move the message to Trash, only marks
it as deleted.
I apologize if I was not exact and I didn't use the right phrases.
Thank you,
