Hm.  Maybe I shouldn't have said `nothing to do with'.  Hm.  I should
have said this, I think:

    The `\Deleted' flag and the expirable flag have a similar purpose
    but are distinct flags.

The documentation for nnimap mentions that Gnus can't display messages
at all which are flagged `\Deleted', but this does not apply to the
expirable flag, since it is a different flag.
