1962483 - Messages completely disappear (are deleted) immediately on "Delete" in IMAP Inbox instead of being moved to Trash

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1958781

(Thunderbird :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

[Klaus Kusche]

Steps to reproduce:

I selected a message in my IMAP Inbox and pressed the "delete" key.

Actual results:

The message immediately disappeared from the Inbox, but was not moved to
"Gelöschte Elemente" (german name of the trash folder on my IMAP server):
"Gelöschte Elemente" was still empty after deleting the message.

Also "Search" was unable to find the message: The message was obviously immediately removed from all folders and completely deleted.

Expected results:

The message should have been moved to the folder "Gelöschte Elemente".
This is the delete operation specified in the account settings:
"When I delete a message: Move it to this folder: "Gelöschte Elemente" on <my IMAP server>"

Very severe problem!!!
Reproducible, tried it for several messages, always the same effect.

More Tests:

• This happens not only for the Inbox:
  Messages in all my IMAP folders are deleted immediately on "Delete" instead of being moved to "Gelöschte Elemente".

• Moving a message to "Gelöschte Elemente" by mouse drag & drop works:
  The message appears in "Gelöschte Elemente".

• My POP3 account is not affected, only the IMAP folders:
  Deleting a message in the local Inbox correctly moves it to the local Trash.
