is this a feature or a bug in conjunction with apple mail. i usually use the feature in imap to not delete the emails, but only mark them as deleted, which is a very usefull feature if you use a emailbox with more people accessing it. Im now trying an SME server installation with dovecot 0.99.10, and when i delete a message, it gets marked as deletet, but as soon as i change the mailbox the mail gets also expunged from it. is this a bug fixed in the newer dovecot releases ? or is this a feature that i can configure ?
Do you have Mail.app set to "Compact mailboxes automatically" (on the Advanced tab of the preferences for the account you are using)? When that is checked, Mail.app issues an IMAP CLOSE command when you leave a mailbox, which removes messages with the \Deleted flag set.
