Oh and one other thing. If you use RC away from home and Thunderbird at home you might want to be aware of this:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=220064
It's a Thunderbird bug/feature that's going to look like a Roundcube bug to a lot of people. If you feel inclined vote for it as a bug and leave a comment that it exhibits itself as buggy behavior in webmail clients.

I have the exact same behavior as Thunderbird in Entourage 2004 (MS Outlook version for Mac). The message isn't actually deleted until it is expunged.
I'm sure other clients are similar as well. Just giving a heads up that more than Thunderbird users may see this same behavior.

This behavior isn't on deletion, it's on moving a message. If you move a message from the Inbox to Work folder, message will still be in the Inbox but marked as deleted and hidden (from Thunderbird). The message will still be visible in Roundcube and other IMAP clients. Is that the behavior you're experiencing in Entourage? Because that seems weird.

Ok, my mistake for misreading the bug report. I will check this behavior once I get home to my Macs and let you know if it behaves the same as T-Bird

This is not a bug, what Thunderbird is doing is the only right ting to do! Let me explain: IMAP doesn't have a move command, so that when you "move" a message in an IMAP client, the client has to tell the server to; 1) copy the message to the target mailbox, and; 2) mark the message as deleted. Now to have the message permanently deleted, the client would have to expunge the mailbox the message was "moved" out of. The problem is that doing so will permanently remove *all* messages (in this mailbox) marked as deleted[1]. Doing this on a mailbox accessed (maybe simultaneously) by multiple clients, and for shared folders maybe even multiple users, clearly violates the principal-of-least-astonishment.
