Subject: [PATCH 1/2] lib: Add back the synchronization of 'T' flag with
	deleted tag.
Date: Sat, 16 Jul 2011 23:56:12 -0400

Precedence: list

This adds a special configuration, off by default, that allows notmuch
to synchronize the T flag again. The configuration is named
maildir_reckless_trash and quite clearly indicates that it could be
dangerous to use in the context described in commit 2c26204, which I
could actually reproduce.

In contexts where notmuch is the only mail client used, this is actually
safe to use. Besides, (T)rashed messages are not necessarily immediately
expunged from the Maildir by the client or the IMAP server.
