When I delete a message from K-9 Mail on my Android phone, it disappears from the phone, buy MM shows it in the INBOX with a red dot where the blue unread dot normally is. No idea what this means, but could it be a similar situation and cast light on the re-appearing problem?

No, this is a different issue. Various email clients have different strategies for deleting and/or moving emails. A red dot means that the message is marked as `\Deleted` (a reserved IMAP keyword). It'll stay like this until K-9 decides to expunge it (IMAP language for permanently deleting `\Deleted` messages). Some times this happens as soon as you select a different mailbox (with K-9). Some times it's a different strategy. And I have feeling that some times some email clients forget to do this.

MailMate is careful about only expunging message it deleted itself and messages are only very briefly marked as `\Deleted` when this is done.
