Deleting items when moving messages.

[x3dfxjunkie]

Here's the issue:
We have several users that, despite pleading/begging/bribing, insist on having emails marked for deletion and leaving them that way. I've configured roundcube to not use a Trash folder, skip deleted, flag for deletion and not protect the trash folder.

Code Select Expand

// move messages to this folder when deleting them
// leave blank if they should be deleted directly
$rcmail_config['trash_mbox'] = '';

// display these folders separately in the mailbox list.
// these folders will automatically be created if they do not exist
$rcmail_config['default_imap_folders'] = array('INBOX', 'Drafts', 'Sent');

// protect the default folders from renames, deletes, and subscription changes
$rcmail_config['protect_default_folders'] = TRUE;

// Set TRUE if deleted messages should not be displayed
// This will make the application run slower
$rcmail_config['skip_deleted'] = TRUE;

// Set true to Mark deleted messages as read as well as deleted
// False means that a message's read status is not affected by marking it as deleted
$rcmail_config['read_when_deleted'] = FALSE;

// When a Trash folder is not present and a message is deleted, flag
// the message for deletion rather than deleting it immediately. Setting this to
// false causes deleted messages to be permanantly removed if there is no Trash folder
$rcmail_config['flag_for_deletion'] = TRUE;

Under normal use, this is fine. The email is flagged for deletion and hidden upon next refresh. Things, however, get a bit hairy when the user actually MOVES an email (like they should for the email they are marking for deletion). Regardless of how the users does the move, either drop-down list or drag-n-drop, the messages marked for deletion in the Inbox are expunged after moving any messages out of that folder.

Is this a bug, or am I missing something in the config?

I think i may have found it, commented out line 1383 and seems to work now.

"program/include/rcube_imap.inc"

Code Select Expand

 1379   // send expunge command in order to have the moved message
  1380   // really deleted from the source mailbox
  1381   if ($moved)
  1382    {
  1383    //$this->_expunge($from_mbox, FALSE);
  1384    $this->_clear_messagecount($from_mbox);
  1385    $this->_clear_messagecount($to_mbox);
  1386    }
