This sounds an awful lot like the problem I've been describing in email..

All the user feedback we've received thus far in testing is that "Empty
folder" should delete and expunge, and currently neither Head nor IMP 4.2
RC2 or 3 do that.  Our rollout team concurs.

Even if "empty folder" is only supposed to delete and not expunge, it
doesn't do that well either.  The "empty folder" icon present in mailbox
view, will tell you that the folder's been emptied, but then doesn't
refresh the message list.  It tells you it's deleted everything, but unless
you refresh the screen, the messages don't even appear to be marked
deleted.

Based on the comments in this ticket, and our own experience, I don't
think this issue is actually resolved.
