Quick bit of additional info:  The section of the log (which is quite long) 
that covers the problem of deleting a message that doesn't get deleted on the 
server is:

------
C: A000356 SELECT "INBOX"
S: * 1624 EXISTS
S: * 0 RECENT
S: * FLAGS ( \Seen \Answered \Flagged \Deleted \Draft $MDNSent )
S: * OK Permanent flags [ PERMANENTFLAGS ( \Seen \Answered \Flagged \Deleted 
\Draft $MDNSent )  ]
S: * OK Is the first unseen message [ UNSEEN 1590  ]
S: * OK UIDVALIDITY value [ UIDVALIDITY 21858  ]
S: * OK The next unique identifier value [ UIDNEXT 85457  ]
S: A000356 OK SELECT completed. [ READ-WRITE  ]
C: A000357 UID STORE 85418 +FLAGS (\Deleted)
akonadi_imap_resource_0(27306)/kdepimlibs (kimap) 
KIMAP::StoreJob::handleResponse: We asked for UID but the server didn't give 
it back, resultingFlags not stored. 
S: * 1596 FETCH ( FLAGS (\Seen \Deleted) )
S: A000357 OK STORE completed.
