cyrus imapd+netscape mail client

[marc.bigler at day.com]

It simply looks like Netscape 7 only sends the IMAP EXPUNGE command after
closing the application. Have a look maybe for an option in Netscape which
sounds like "expunge mailbox after deleting mail". I have no clue if this
exists but that's your problem, but for sure not a bug.

Regards
Marc

Hi there,

I'm using both IMP and Mozilla 1.1 which is very similar to yours. I
have that 'problem' as well but if you take a look at IMP's Trash after
deleting your email in Netscape, you'll notice that the email is both in
Trash and striked out in Inbox at the same time. Only after you close
Netscape mail, the email will be actually deleted off (provided that you
set the option in your mail client settings).

I'm not too sure how the IMAP protocol is supposed to work but this may
not be a bug after all.
