Mozilla Thunderbird for example, when it's set to handle a deleted
message by "move it to the trash folder", copies it to the trash and
leaves the original marked as deleted without expunging. Then, if you
look in IMP, you see them there in grey crossed-out.
Mozilla is basically hiding the deleted messages - so if IMP could do
that too, while using the trash folder, then the two would be behaving
just about identically.
(The flip side of course is if Mozilla would expunge after moving to
trash, then it'd be acting more like IMP).
