It seems that `S o m' in summary buffer deletes the forwarded article
(at least in my imap group).  Is this intended behavior?

If it is, I think that this should be reflected in the documentation.
I have been noticing that some important messages have been
dissappearing from my private mail group, and only today did I
discover that the common thing about those dissappearances is that I
forwarded those messages at one point.

Also, if the deletion of articles is intentional, then I would like to
point out an inconsistency in visual clues.  Compare to cancelling an
article or deleting one --- the article's info is displayed in black
after the operation to indicate that it's gone now.  After `S o m' the
article appears to still be there and accessible.
