Hi, The move capability is, as you spotted, not implemented by the Mailbox Store. See RFC 3501 and you will see that the behaviour for this IMAP command is not well defined.
Current clients ( eg : thunderbird ) perform first a copy of the message. Then delete the old one. You should follow these steps to "move" messages. The expunge command only deletes mail marked as DELETED. If you have no message with the DELETED flag in your mailbox, nothing appens. Hope it helps. ( Sorry for the noise, it seems I had a configuration problem with my GPG tools... ) Le 26/03/2015 13:30, Tilman Ginzel a écrit : > Hi, > > I have a rather unusual requirement where an unread email needs to be > deleted as soon as the user clicks on it.
