I've just started using the IMAP module with V1.0 cross-platform (after several years of very successful use of earlier versions of Popfile).
One IMAP behaviour I don't understand:
I have just two buckets "normal" and "spam", plus "unclassified".
I've configured Popfile so that "normal" goes to folder INBOX and "spam" goes to folder Spam. "Unclassified" also goes to INBOX.
I received one message today which went into Spam and I moved it to INBOX. The IMAP module has reclassified this to "unclassified" whereas I expected it to be reclassified as "normal".
Is this something I should live with, or is there some way to tell the IMAP module that when I move a message from Spam to INBOX I'm trying to tell it that it should go in the "normal" bucket.
By the way, the log file entry says:
"imap: 886: Reclassified the message with UID 26888 from bucket spam to bucket unclassified."

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
The fix in the IMAP module will involve code that makes sure that the module will never classify to the pseudo unclassified bucket and that users will not be able to chose such a configuration in the first place.

I found one very old thread which might relate to this:

Ouch.
This should never ever happen. You just found a huge bug in the IMAP module and I will try to fix it ASAP.
Thanks for the detailed report,

Manni,
Thanks for the quick feedback. If you want me to test a modified IMAP.pm, just let me know.

I'm puzzled.
Three states and two states.
So how do you classify from unclassified to normal since they both sit in the same state/box?
Move it to itself?
I think you need a box called unclassified.
No need to be puzzled. You're absolutely right.
The fix in the IMAP module will involve code that makes sure that the module will never classify to the pseudo unclassified bucket and that users will not be able to chose such a configuration in the first place.
