There's been no feedback on this so I'm just sending a ping.
Having re-read the above I'm not really sure how clear I was either -
however, as it stands the current behaviour is very confusing and
doesn't make sense.
The problem only happens when Imp is set to use a trash folder with
IMAP. In this case if another MUA has deleted some messages in a folder
then they are shown in Imp as deleted with a line through them. If the
trash folder is not in use then there is an option to 'Hide deleted
messages', but even this isn't there when trash is enabled. Really the
only correct thing to do is not show these messages at all.
The patch below fixes this, but if it breaks something else I'd be
interested to know so we can come up with something that works in all
cases.
Cheers,
Martin.
