Each time I try to move a message from one folder to another, after doing
the operation I see a "D" flag in front of the message. When I try to exit
the folder or the application I am asked if I want to purge the message.
If I say "yes", then I can't find the message neither in the folder I have
moved it into, nor in the current folder (it purges the message from the
server). If I say "no", then it deletes the message from the current
folder (let's say Inbox) and keeps it in the folder I have moved it into
(let's say Trash). I'm moving a message by pressing "s" or using the
following macro:
"macro index,pager \043 "<save-
message>=[Gmail]/Trash<enter><enter><refresh>" "Trash Message"
In both cases the message is flagged "D" and I am asked if I want to purge
it. Why would I want to purge the message (get rid of it for good), since
I simply wanted to transfer it from one folder into another? If I set
"delete=yes", it doesn't ask me to purge it, but it purges it
automatically, so I can't find it anywhere. Is there a fix for this,
please?
