Could you please point me to the documentation for specifying a different form of file locking?

I'm using IMAP to access my mail.

I don't want delete=yes, because I don't want my deleted messages to be purged, except when I specifcally tell my mail client to purge messages (that is, I do not want to change to a different mail folder, come back the original folder, and discover that my deleted messages are gone). Is it at all possible to purge messages when delete=no? I tried binding the keys such that pressing $ will temporarily set delete=yes, but this seems to be rather tricky. Thanks for your help! Paul
