--- Comment #25 from Gauss <third-impact at gmx.de> ---
I can also confirm "this" bug, while a bit different then in the original
report.
I can move mails between folders, but the delete aka purge function does not
seem to work. Deleted mails are greyed out and can neither be selected nor
purged within kmail.
The mails are marked as deleted (in my IMAP webinterface), however purge is not
being called, although the folder compression option to purge deleted mails is
checked in the settings.

!!!!!!!!!
This bug is particularly grave when combined with mail filtering. The filter
first moves the mail to another folder, but cannot purge it. The next times the
filter is called that non-purged mail is again filtered and moved to that
folder. So each time the filter is called, in the target folder there is the
original mail plus nFilterCalls x the non-purged mail. The account basically
explodes if many big mails are received and the filter is called often.
!!!!!!!!!

If I go to my IMAP web interface and manually purge the deleted mails
everything is fine again... until new mails arrive. So the only thing I can do
is disable my filters, thus this bug actually breaks a lot more features!

The bug exists since an upgrade from Ubuntu 15.04 to 15.10, Kmail version is
5.0.2
