Hi,

I've just migrated to Dovecot from cyrus-imapd, and I notice that when I move emails from one folder to another they appear to be automatically marked deleted (expected) and also purged (not expected). With cyrus, I am used to emails being marked deleted, but still existing until a manual purge (expunge).

Is this normal behaviour with Dovecot, and is it configurable?

Thanks.

Kevin.

Does this happen if you do this on wire?

telnet localhost 143 a LOGIN username password s SELECT INBOX s STORE 1:1 FLAGS (\Deleted) # or some other message-set n NOOP l LOGOUT
