Steps to reproduce:
I created a filter to move email to another email account (128.4.3esr (64-bit))
Actual results:
It copies the email but does not delete it in the original account.
Expected results:
A "move" should move it, not copy it.

The email is removed from the inbox, but it still appears in the All Mail folder.

This is the way gmail works. "All Mail" retains all messages.
