immediate delete of mails

[Tamas Selmeci]

When I press DEL on a mail, the file /home/tselmeci/mail/Trash increases and the deleted mail is appended to it. But it doesn't disappear from /var/spool/mail/tselmeci. Once I expunge, /home/tselmeci/mail/Trash becomes empty but the original mail is still present in /var/spool/mail/tselmeci.

Maybe the SMTP server holds a write lock on the spool file thus preventing Dovecot from erasing the mail?
