Could it be done for IMAP? FWIW, using POP with Thunderbird on PC, deleting email moves it into trash. If the client is set to delete mail on the server when I delete it in the client and I drag it out of the trash to the Inbox, I don't think it's moved back into the mail store on the server. It goes into the mail client's local mail store. David W.
