[imp] delete emails directly and permanently

[Arminas]

Hi again,

It was easier for me to add such feature, because I'm not using
"undelete" function. So here is my changes:

-------------------------------------------------
in imp/mailbox.php I've added line:

 $a_template->set('undelete', Horde::widget('#', _("Delete
Permanently"), 'widget', '', "if (confirm('" . addslashes(_("Are you
sure you wish to perma
nently delete these messages?")) . "')) {
messages_submit('undelete_messages'); } return false;", _("Delete
Permanently")));

and in the same file changed action handler:

case 'undelete_messages':
    if (!empty($indices)) {
        require_once IMP_BASE . '/lib/Message.php';
        $imp_message = &IMP_Message::singleton();
       /* ($actionID == 'delete_messages')
            ? $imp_message->delete($indices, false)
            : */ $imp_message->delete($indices, true);
    }
    break;

-------------------------

Take a look at the arguments for the function delete(); I've added on
more argument to detect weather we are deleting messages permanenlty
or not. So we must change this in the file imp/lib/Message.php

function delete(&$indices, $smth, $keeplog = false)
{
     $nuke = $smth;
      .................
}

And this is it. I guess there might be a "cleaner" way to do this, but
if youre using function for undeleting messages, so you might want to
create your own action.

I hope this helped.

Good luck,
Arminas
