RE: feature request: maintain folder structure with expunged email

Hi this lazy_expunge is indeed the functionality I am looking for. First I thought I could use the dovecot purge for this (by just not running it). But it is just not suited for it.

I am looking for a way: to allow to recover accidentally deleted emails (+folder structure) quickly, without the necessity of restoring them from backup. I think it is good to keep such an option.

Does this lazy_expunge take into account the moving of messages between namespaces? Currently you have a copy + delete action and these messages I do not want to have in the laze_expunge.

Feature request: maintain folder/mailbox structure with expunging.

You could use lazy_expunge with a namespace. Although it's marked as deprecated, so that might go away at some point. There have been some thoughts about the ability to remember the original folder also in the mailbox-based lazy_expunge folder, but it's not in any near future plans.
