I've told the user to manually delete again the messages marked for deletion.
Virtual Trash sounds like a good move when quotas are full. I can't
figure out how to configure it. I searched for docs on it at the
horde wiki and nothing.
Here is what we have by default:
$_prefs['vfolder'] = array(
// By default, Virtual Inbox is enabled and Virtual Trash is disabled.
// 'value' => serialize(array())
'value' => 'a:0:{}'
);
How is Virtual Trash enabled? Will Virtual trash be purged the same
way as "traditional trash" - according to the settings in prefs.php?
By the sounds of it, Virtual Trash would be purged on logout?
