Question: What should the TUI look like after deleting mail using msgvault?

[larray]

After I have selected items from the root TUI menu (for example I want to delete all mail from 'northerntool@northerntoolemail.com' - I select it, hit "D" and exit the TUI, then run msgvault delete-staged and it successfully processes) and completed the cycle, when I re-enter the TUI - the emails are still there.

Should they not be filtered/hidden? Is there an indicator somewhere that I missed that they are 'purged' as a result of the cleanup cycle from msgvault back to my inbox?

When I go back into the TUI and re-select the same sender and hit 'd' again I get:

So... looking for items to clean up that still have a high count or size in terms of proportion of inbox usage are skewed, because they may have been cleaned by a previous cycle. I've found I can 'nuke' everything and resync from scratch and then it is correctly reflected what the current size/counts look like.

I assume without wiping that database with a full resync, I could sync and continue to choose the same senders and if new email comes in, it appears it would purge new emails...

Possibly an enhancement to hide/filter items that msgvault has removed, excluding them from the TUI or focusing on them (if you need to recover and export maybe?).

Try the f key to hide this email

Personally, I am deleting remote email not to get rid of it but so that my private copy is the only copy. I plan to add the ability to "permadelete" and there is #123 which adds the ability to permadelete emails that have been removed from the remote server.

I can also add a config.toml option so that emails deleted remotely can be hidden by default by setting an option (currently the default is to show the emails because msgvault is designed as a system of record)

Apologies! (Was this added recently?) I didn't see anything on the bottom bar (and I agree - keep it clean) and I may have overlooked in it the ? help section as I haven't looked on the website or the ? section since ~ v5. OH! Looks like it was v7 change log item :smh: - thanks!
