[Dovecot] Move deleted to trash
Is there a way to have messages marked to be deleted move to the trash folder automatically? I have moved from courier-imap (which dovecot performs muck better) but the one feature I really need is move to trash. Is there any plugins available for this?

Nope. That's a pretty evil thing to do from IMAP protocol's point of view. It probably wouldn't be too difficult to implement it by looking at mail-log and lazy-expunge plugins.

Thunderbird has an option to do this from the client end.
Under server settings, "When I delete a message" choose "Move it to the Deleted folder" (as opposed to "Mark it as deleted" or "Remove immediately").
