Continuing testing. Examining the mail folder on disk using 'ls -alrt'
reveals:
Delete a message from Inbox (moves to Trash). Only file that updates is
'dovecot.map.index.log' - and grows in size
Perform 'Empty Trash'. Again, only 'dovecot.map.index.log' updates -
and grows in size
doveadm dump ... reveals - no output
So at the moment - I'm not losing mail, but I can't get rid of stuff
I've deleted! Once it's in mdbox - it's there forever! :)
