This hack has nothing to do with what is being discussed.

There is no bug in Cyrus.  The 'Trash' folder concept is actually a hack
on top of the IMAP delete/expunge methodology.  When an IMAP client
DELETEs a message, it is only flagged as such.  Messages are never
removed from an IMAP server until the client EXPUNGEs them.  The fact
that Netscape copies the message to the Trash folder without expunging
it from the original folder is unfortunate, but this isn't Cyrus'
problem (its only doing what it is told).

Did you use the --enable-netscapehack configuration option?

Re: cyrus imapd+netscape mail client

2002-11-07 Thread marc . bigler

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.

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.

Hi!

from where i saw that?

OK, problem is that when deleting mail with Netscape Mail, mail is
moved to Trash folder but if i use a webmail client (IMP) then
i see that it was also left in INBOX and was never deleted from there.

Maybe someone know how to resolve this.
