2.1 mark it deleted, hide it from view, then purge it after [n] days
where [n] defaults to something like 30? 7? and is settable (and is
settable to '0' for delete it NOW and 'never' for mark but never purge
automatically).
Also fairly common is to purge on quit, or purge on closing the mailbox.
There's a nice cyrus-imap extension that causes the server to keep the mail
around for a specific period after purging, to ensure that all mail ever
delivered to the server gets backed up.
