So, I open up the nnimap+levander@mindspring:INBOX group and hit 'E' on an article. I hit 'B e' to run the expiry process, and the article just stays in the Summary buffer, with a big E next to it. In my other mail client, Thunderbird, the mail message is still in the INBOX folder. I restart gnus, change the value of nnmail-expiry-target to "levander@mindspring.com", restart a few more times, expire other articles. Nothing works. I think I'm just going about this the wrong way. I don't care if I use the expiry feature or not. How do I set it up so that when I delete messages they get moved to the Trash folder? The main reason I need it this way is that I use other mail clients than Gnus. If it's not consistent where deleted articles go, I'm going to have to delete the same articles for each mail client I use that does it a different way. This functionality has to be on a per-group basis because I have multiple email accounts.
