Should the screen refresh to show that messages have been deleted?
Should the status messages / UI elements be updated to reflect that the
messages have only been deleted a not expunged? "Emptied all messages
from /foldername/" really says to me that the has been emptied, and for
that to happen, they need to be deleted /and/ expunged.
