But IMP 4.x uses libc-client - and that is the library sending  
commands to the remote IMAP server.

It seems a bit suspicious that the /cur and /new directories are  
deleted but the /tmp directory is not (nor are the various courier  
metadata files).  You might want to test and determine what courier  
does in an expected IMAP DELETE operation - if it deletes the entire  
Maildir structure rather than just the /cur and /new dirs then this  
would likely indicate an issue with the Courier software.
