I'm not using IMAP, but just out of curiosity - isn't there a 
(technical) way that (any) email client software can actually delete a 
mail, even from an IMAP account, if the user wishes to do so? Or are 
IMAP mails entirely undeletable by manual activity from the user/client? 
(I don't know, so that's a real question...)

And: Is it possible to set rules in Apple Mail or Thunderbird etc. to 
automatically delete certain mails, once they pass some filter?

Because - if you accept that beta software may accidentally kill mails 
through POP3 access if it fails, then why would beta software never kill 
a mail through IMAP access if this deleting process is actually 
something that the software is capable of in general?
