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. :-/ -Justin
