Sorry about the previous content free reply ...

I'm running 2.26. My mail server and mail files are all on my local system
where I run Alpine. I have not of the Expunge settings SET and expunge
continues to work the way it always has ... it expunges when I use the
eXpunge command, not when I mark deleted.

If you are using a remote mail server, perhaps the provider changed
something. If you, like me, are using a local server, we continue to have
a mystery.
