What does “remove” mean?
So I'm looking at this help:
wl-dispose-folder-alist is a variable defined in `wl-vars.el'.
Its value is
(("^-" . remove)
("^@" . remove))
Documentation:
*Alist of folder and dispose policy.
Each element is (folder-regexp . policy).
The policy is one of the followings:
'remove or
'null : remove message.
string : refile to the specified folder.
'trash or
otherwise : refile to the `wl-trash-folder'.
ex.
'(("^%" . "%#mh/trash")
("^-" . remove)
("^\\+" . trash))
I know what “refile” means. What does “remove” mean? Especially, what
does it mean in the case where the pattern matches "^-", i.e., an NNTP
folder. And what does it mean in the case of IMAP, where messages can
be deleted or expunged?
Thanks,
