Hi this lazy_expunge is indeed the functionality I am looking for.  First I 
thought I could use the dovecot purge for this (by just not running it). But it 
is just not suited for it. 

I am looking for a way: to allow to recover accidentally deleted emails 
(+folder structure) quickly, without the necessity of restoring them from 
backup. I think it is good to keep such an option.

Does this lazy_expunge take into account the moving of messages between 
namespaces? Currently you have a copy + delete action and these messages I do 
not want to have in the laze_expunge.
