Re: [PLUG] mozilla mail?

Wrong, sir, wrong.  (It sounds funny when I say it to myself.)  If the 
client is configured to mark messages as deleted, the "compact" command 
will remove the messages marked as deleted.  So, unless the client is 
configured to "expunge" the inbox on exit or the "compact" command is 
used, the messages marked as deleted will still be there next time you 
log in.  It's faster than moving messages to trash.  (I also find that 
it's faster to copy sent mail to a local folder.  In both cases less 
data is sent over the 50kbps wire.)
