Not sure if this is related - but I found that the blacklist
conversion script from IMP 3.2 -> CVS made some blacklist entries
containing the letter a. So all email from users containing the
letter a were instantly deleted (inconvenient at a site in Australia :)

I modified IMP so that instead of deleting and expunging blacklisted
messages, only delete them and let the user Purge Deleted if they're
happy. Having messages deleted that the user could never even get a
chance to see (eg, why it was blacklisted) seemed like a bad idea.

It's a two line patch, that I can cook up against HEAD if people
think it desirable?

Bernard.
