hi,
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 ?
My suspicions here would fall on your mail client. When I first installed Dovecot and transitioned the company to IMAP, people had deleted mails hanging about all the time (nobody knew about Expunging :). However, several clients have "expunge on exit" options.
Can I ask why you're using such an old version? There have been numerous bug fixes between 0.99.10 and 0.99.14...
