If you read the following, you can see why it happens, and the better
method of file deletions.

Simply.
To delete message, mark as \Deleted. Trash folder is Virtual folder....
I'm trying to get SquirrelMail to do it this way... (When time permits)
Curious... In IMAP language, how do we make this virtual folder? Is it
just a search based on tag/label?
Thanks
