It's like when a messages is deleted from TB, the message get moved to the Trash folder, and it's expunged(?) at the same time. Is it possible?

Do you use TB2? And do you have two trash folders? Like:

• INBOX.Trash
• Trash

Then have a look at this bugreport: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=479226

TB3 behaves differently, but still wrong.

hi Aiko,

Thanks for the quick answer and I'm sorry for the late. Yes, this was the problemm it's solved, but still not everything is cool.

I think, I tried everything and now I'm out of clue.

If I press DEL with courier+TB, the message was moved to trash. But if I press SHIFT+DEL, it's just removed the message. With dovecot I can't do that. Is there any solution?

Thank you,

tamas

I didn't wrote, cyrus-imapd works like courier.

Does anybody have an idea for the solution?

Moving mails to Trash or expunging them directly is something, the mailprogram has to take care of. Right now, I guess, your thunderbird configuration is slighty different for dovecot.

To prove my guess, you should start with an empty mailbox and a fresh thunderbird profile.

So long, Aiko

Yes, I did with the same result. Does it work for you?

shift+del works for me with TB 3.0 and Dovecot 1.2.9.

Could you send me a diff agains the default dovecot.conf?

I forgot to mention, do you use the plugin deleted_to_trash?

Thank you,

Well the conlusion is to me, that I can't use deleted_to_trash and SHIFT+DEL together.

Thank you,

(as a reply to your mail)

I'm not subscribed to the mailing list, but I just read your thread regarding this plugin.

It seems to me that the Shift-Delete function you are referring to in Thunderbird just bypasses the built-in move-to-trash-on-delete function, but on the server-side is identical to any other regular delete action (flag the message as deleted, followed by an expunge later on, probably after closing the mail client) and is thus copied to the trash folder by my plugin.

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.

Greetings, Lex Brugman

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.

Lex
