Yes. The E mark should be visible in the Summary buffer on the second Gnus if the first Gnus had set the mark. Do (setq imap-log t) and search for "gnus-expire". You can tell if the server support client flags by looking at the PERMANENTFLAGS: * OK [PERMANENTFLAGS (\Answered \Flagged \Draft \Deleted \Seen \*)] The \* means that client flags are supported.
