cannot delete very big mails until they were retrieved from server

[grizzancs]

Binary package hint: thunderbird

Hi!

I use IMAP, and i got recently a few very big messages ( ~ 12mbyte each ), which i knew i do not need. I tried to delete it, but i had to wait until the message was fully retrieved ( I believe i have turned on 'download only header', however i could not find its place ).

The status bar is showing "Downloading message...", but when it finishes the download, the message is immediately deleted.

I tried with right click/ delete message, and the Del button on my keyboard as well.
