Comment (by stippi):
At least with my GMX account, the situation has improved a lot since
r40399. The read/new status is synced quite well. Mails are marked as
deleted on the server if and only if you use Tracker to immediately delete
the files, not move them to the Trash (Shift+Delete). If you first move
them to the Trash and then empty the Trash, it won't work either. Also,
the mails stay on the server, but with a /Deleted flag. In GMX, it means I
will still see them in the inbox folder of the web interface, only striked
through. All in all, I think the problems can only be fixed when IMAP is
implemented as a dedicated file system. Otherwise the combination
Tracker/Mail cannot work. The dedicated file system could fake the Trash
folder at the root directory, which is where Tracker or Mail would want to
move deleted mails. Moving deleted mails to another IMAP folder is a
better solution IMHO, since it has the undo capability (regardless of
whether in Haiku or via web interface), and it doesn't leave tons of
"strike through" mails in the inbox.
