Subject: B DEL is being treated as expiry?
Date: Tue, 23 Jul 2002 07:21:00 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <vxkelduheqr.fsf@cinnamon.vanillaknot.com> (raw)
Lately, when I do `B DEL' on messages in nnml:personal.general, the
articles get expired rather than deleted, which means that instead of
disappearing, they get moved to nnml:archive.current.personal.general,
because that's the value of expiry-target in group parameters.
This is very wrong. When I use `B DEL' in personal.general, it's
usually because spam managed to slide past my nnmail-split-rules and
got into the wrong place.
So when I hit `B DEL', I want an article to go away, now and forever.
Deletion is not expiry. Looking over the ChangeLog, this is the
comment reflecting the change which caused this.

* gnus-sum.el (gnus-summary-delete-article): Respect group
parameters while expiring.
I see what -delete-article is doing now, and it's just plain wrong.
If an -expire-right-now function is wanted, then that should be
something separate. "Delete" is not the same thing.
