I can't think of anything to distinguish this behavior from a normal delete action by any other mail client and using Shift-Delete in Thunderbird (server-side), if you know one, please let me know and I will try to implement it.
hi Lex,
I don't know quite a lot about IMAP.
I just know courier and cyrus and how the way they work with TB. With them TB expunge the message if I delete it by SHIFT+DEL.
What I can see with courier is if I press DEL, it marks the message as deleted and copy it to Trash. I say this, because it leaves the marked message in the mailbox (maildir) and for example I can see and undelete it by mutt. If I press SHIFT+DEL, it does not move the message to Trash, only marks it as deleted.
I apologize if I was not exact and I didn't use the right phrases.
Thank you,
tamas I understand the difference between the actions in the mail client, but to be able to do something with this in the plugin I need to know how it is different from a normal delete action on the server-side.
