Hello!

I've some folders where I deleted some messages. They are not really deleted, but have the X-Status: D header field set.

How can I force a real delete in dovecot?

Thank you for the answer.

Ciao, Gerhard

You need to do a "purge" or "clean" or "compact" or "expunge" depending on your mail client. (The actually IMAP command they run is called "EXPUNGE")

Best Wishes, Chris
