I don't know about the specific errors emitted, but I've encountered the same behavior. As it turns out, the required behavior per RFC 6851 Section 4.2 is that the message cannot be MOVE'd without the expunge permission: 4.2. RFC 4314, Access Control List (ACL) The ACL rights [RFC4314] required for MOVE and UID MOVE are the union of the ACL rights required for UID STORE, UID COPY, and UID EXPUNGE. You should be able to get the old behavior back by overriding the CAPABILITY response in the dovecot configuration to exclude "MOVE". Hope that helps. V/r, James Cassell
