For regular mailboxes, trashing works like other marks: when executed,
|
||||
the message is flagged as trashed. Depending on your mailbox provider,
|
||||
the trash flag is used to automatically move the message to the trash
|
||||
folder (@code{mu4e-trash-folder}) for instance.
|
||||
|
||||
Some mailboxes behave differently however and they don't interpret the
|
||||
trash flag. In cases like Gmail, the message must be @emph{moved} to
|
||||
the trash folder and the trash flag must not be used.
|
||||
|
||||
@code{mu4e} has provisions for non-standard mailboxes: if a message
|
||||
maildir matches a regular expression in
|
||||
@code{mu4e-move-to-trash-patterns} then the message is moved instead of
|
||||
being flagged. When a context is created with
|
||||
@code{make-mu4e-context-account} (see @ref{Account setup helper}), the
|
||||
pattern is automatically added for you.
|
||||
|
||||
This should work fine for Gmail and similar mailboxes. Note that in the
|
||||
case of Gmail, you might have to configure your mailbox ``expunge''
|
||||
settings.
