Hi,

With IMAP, in the 1.4 series, deleting an email would send "haggis
imap"/Trash (which has a trash can icon next to it), where I could
do Action->"Empty Trash" to get rid of it.

Now, deleted emails go to "haggis imap"/INBOX/Trash, which I have to

How are they deleted?  You say you have to explictly delete them?
Huh?

By highlighting messages, and clicking on the Delete button.
The first time, or the second time?

You say deleted emails go to INBOX/Trash but then you delete them and
they go to Trash.

I figured the second case is where you select messages and delete
them.

Gah!!  Now it's doing something different!

When I delete an email that's sitting in one of my folders, where
is it supposed to go?
"haggis imap"/INBOX/Trash
  or
"haggis imap"/Trash ??
It should only go to the last.  UNLESS, and this is quite possible,
your server is doing something stupid like physically moving deleted
folders.

Ok (maybe).  I've disabled Hide Deleted Messages.

1. When I delete emails from INBOX/foo, the emails "stay" in the
   INBOX/foo mail list, but with the "strikeout" font property.
2. They appear in Trash, also with the "strikeout" font property.
   So far, so good!
3. I do Actions->"Empty Trash"
4. The emails appear in INBOX/Trash!!!
5. I delete the emails sitting in INBOX/Trash.  The same happens
   to them as happened in steps 1 & 2.
6. I do Actions->"Empty Trash", again.  Finally, the emails are gone.
