Bug#247492: pop: messages deleted on client should be deleted on server, too

[Matthias Georg Imhof]

Package: balsa
Version: 2.0.17-1
Severity: wishlist


I am using pop3 to read emails on multiple clients, thus messages are left and stored on the server. I noticed that deleting a downloaded message on the client does not delete it on the server, too. 

Mozilla and Thunderbird provide this functionality. When a message is deleted on the client, it is also deleted on the server when the server is contacted again. 
I really whished that balsa would allow this cheazy form of synchronization.
