I've just got back from an Australian holiday to discover that the
Office2001 SR1 patch has been released, and I can now use Entourage with the
EIMS IMAP server.  Hooray!  However, it seems that messages in my IMAP
account which are marked as deleted, and purged with the "Purge Deleted
Items" option, are reappearing when I log back into the account (although
still marked as deleted).

I captured a session stream of commands while deleting and purging, and it
seemed that while Entourage did tell the IMAP server to set the delete flag
when I mark the message deleted, it didn't issue an IMAP "EXPUNGE" command
either when I chose "Purge Deleted Items" or when Entourage quit (I have the
"purge on quit" set for the account).

I didn't see anything in the archives about a general problem with IMAP
deleting, and I'll try it with a test account and also fire up the WebStar
IMAP server for a test.  There was a report of a similar problem on the EIMS
list concerning Entourage SR1 while I was gone, but no-one there ever
replied.  Has anyone seen a similar problem using a different IMAP server?
I'll post whatever results I find - I'm really hoping that this isn't
another glitch in Entourage that would keep us from using it with EIMS.
