[nnimap] articles not expunged

[Nicolas Kowalski]

Hello.

I updated my copy of gnus today. Since this time, articles marked as
deleted are not expunged from the imap mailboxes.

I have :

 gnus-select-method '(nnimap "verimag"
			     (nnimap-address "imapserver")
			     (nnimap-expunge-on-close always))

Someone has an idea ?

Thanks in advance.
Nicolas.

There is a small amount of bustage with nnimap-dont-close variable and
the function nnimap-close-group.

If nnimap-dont-close is set to 't' (default), then groups are not closed
(and not expunged) on exit.  They are closed later, but they are not
expunged then either :(

You can either use "G x" from the group buffer to expunge, or set
nnimap-dont-close to nil via (setq nnimap-dont-close nil) in gnus.el, or
via "M-x customize nnimap" and changing the "Don't Close" option to off.

Should be fixed in CVS now.  Please try without any local 
customization.

I commented out (setq nnimap-dont-close nil), updated my copy of gnus,
and...It works well by now :-).

Thanks you very much.
