Typo (or braino). There is no "imapext" list.
Well there is, just not quite what you wrote:
List-Archive: <http://www.imc.org/ietf-imapext/mail-archive/>
List-ID: <ietf-imapext.imc.org>
That list is still active to some extent and might be more appropriate for
an extension to IMAP rather than "IMAP 5", but I am not bothered either way.
Really it is "can have the side effect" since clients might have the
option of using UID EXPUNGE
But UID EXPUNGE is part of the UIDPLUS extension, not in base IMAP
(and I'm not sure how widely deployed UIDPLUS is. And, as you say,
one would have to be mentally unstable to try to work around this the
other way. Still, "can have" is fine, and I've changed the text.
Hehe - well I guess I must have been mentally unstable at some point in
time because I did actually implement the "undelete, sequence expunge,
redelete" behavior in Mulberry to handle the case of a non UIDPLUS server -
however that is only used when playing back disconnected operations where
an expunge was explicitly triggered by the user whilst offline. In Mulberry
the "move" operation simply does copy + mark deleted - it does not expunge
- the user is on the hook to explicitly do that.
