It's very similar in concept, but Gnus does not use \Deleted to
represent expirable messages. It used a Gnus-specific \Expirable
flag for that. nnimap marks messages with \Deleted only when Gnus
says to delete the article.
Since IMAP messages marked \Deleted are not actually removed until an
expunge is done on the folder, this somewhat resembles a second expiry
stage.
On a different note, I am still completely unable to get nnimap to
work unplugged. :-/
