Is that something we can look forward to in the near future?
I had originally intended to just hack in my own fast-and-dirty patch to
add a "purged" directory alongside cur, new, and tmp in each maildir,
and have expunged mails get mv'ed into ../pur rather than get rm'ed.
Lazy_Expunge seems like a much more elegant solution, but if users can
delete the emails anyway it's not really fitting the bill.
For my own purposes, I don't necessarily care a lot whether the users
can see deleted mails or not... I just don't want them to be able to
permanently delete them in violation of retention policy.
Thanks for your time - and for Dovecot, which I've been using since
something like 0.4 or so. =)

I guess currently there is no easy way to do it. You could use
non-guessable prefixes, but that's security through obscurity..
I was first thinking about using a default ACL file, but that doesn't
really work either. I guess I should some day implement proper "default
ACLs for a namespace" support..
