If you have the option "Leave messages on server" and "Delete them when 
deleting them on local machine" turned on and you move a message to another 
folder than inbox, the messages get deleted on the server too although they are 
still on the local machine (but not in inbox).

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
You must have the option "Leave messages on server" and "Delete them when 
deleting them on local machine" on.

1. Get mail
2. Move a message to another folder than inbox
3. Get mail again
4. Look on the server (eg. with imp) - the message you moved to another folder 
disapired

Actual Results:  The message on the server is removed.

Expected Results:  Leave the message on the server.

I have posted this to the wishlist newsgroup and people there said that this is 
a bug and not a wish =). It would be great if you fix that, because in my case 
I have a computer at work and at home and I want to store my messages in other 
folders rather then all in the inbox. BTW. This feature works ok in M$ Outlook.
is this with a POP account? (Dup of bug 66270)
Yes this is with a POP account.
