I can appreciate the importance of protecting non-technical users from deleting their \
mail accidentally.  Unfortunately, there appears to be *no workaround* for this \
problem! Even piping to /bin/true, or the like, fails due to the semantics of the \
pipe action.

It's arrogant to suggest that moving to trash, or to a daily-expiring folder is an \
adequate workaround in every possible circumstance.  It's important to me, and \
obviously to others, for various reasons, that these messages be deleted completely \
and immediately.

I would be happy to take the time to produce a patch if I could be assured that it \
would not be ignored.
