Hmmm, it may depend on confirm_delete [sic] - the way it works is if
mutt asks you whether you wish to purge messages (when syncing or
switching folders) and you decline, the messages are still marked 'D',
but not expunged. I do use this from time to time in the development
series. I doubt it's in the stable branch yet, though...
I'll have a closer look at the code path when I get back home...
