Answering my own question.

This seems to work:
- after the emails are processed (moved/deleted/filtered etc) right click on the folder and select Remove Deleted.
-then purge & compress

Not sure if this is the 'best way' but does seem to get around the problem I had.

Hope this helps someone else.

Currently I use FastMail.fm via IMAP.
I have upgraded to The Bat! Pro v3.1.7 in the last few days.

The Problem:
Using filters to move messages once read to either another IMAP folder or sometimes to the local HD.

Once the messages move, manually 'purge/compress' the folder. Logoff the account, then later in the day use Alpine or Mulberry clients or even the web interface to revisit later in the day -- while at work   and the messages are still there. They are marked for 'deletion'.

Even tried viewing with TB by selecting another IMAP folder and then reselecting the folder a few minutes later and the messages do not show.

Seems as TB removes the messages from the cache (yes I did try to purge/resync folders and cache) but not purge properly on the server.

It seems as if the purge function does not work for IMAP folders to me. Does anyone else have this problem?

Or know how to fix?

Thank you
