Use 9-24-09-M11 build/PC Win98 to recreate this problem: 1) Set up the IMAP profile delet msg to "move it to the Trash folders". 2) Migrated this IMAP profile from 4.7 to 5.0 3) Go to the Account Setup -> Server for checking the delete message info. 4) Actual Result: The delete msg info is not consistent with 4.7, it default "Mark it as delete". Expected Results: The delete msg info should be consistent with 4.7, it should display "move it to the Trash folders" instead of "Mark it as delete".

I'll take this, since it's related to 16805, getting imap delete model to work.

Actually, the pref is migrated. What's wrong is that the account wizard doesn't display the delete model correctly (probably an xpapps or xul or layout bug, in that the drop down menu text doesn't match what's actually selected - it seems to just display the first choice, no matter what the actual backing value is)

this is fixed - the other problem is because of 14312, apparently.
As far as I can see, the pref is indeed being migrated correctly and the account settings dropdown is just not reflecting the proper selection. Pref migrated ok using 12-06-08m12 mac OS 8.5.1

Pref values are indeed migrated to 5.0 prefs as they were in 4.x. However, the 5.0 UI is currently showing switch selection value as compared to 4.x. In 5.0, "mark as deleted" selection is using value 1 in the prefs line and "move to trash" is using value 0. This is oppposite of 4.x usage. I have opened a bug to track the 5.0 UI's selection as to the prefs value: see bug #21057. Marking this verified because the delete model pref is being migrated.
