This one of the better "innovation" brought by Gmail, if used correctly.

Unfortunately it's not very usable via IMAP. Example:
How do I tell mutt to tag the message as read in All Mail when I delete
it (archive in Gmail speak) from Inbox?

My solution (not sure if solution is the right word bu hey ho...) is that nothing is untagged (remember that 'Inbox' is just a tag). If something is deleted it is gone, if I want to keep something but not have it littering up my Inbox a tag is applied and it is the archived.

On a slightly different note does anybody know the correct FCC to move sent items to Googles 'sent' folder, at the moment I have the somewhat unsatisfactory arrangement of stuff sent by Alpine ending up in a separate folder.
