Hi, that seems like some limitation of your IMAP server. I am able to
move to trash several thousands of messages at once. Granted, I am on
Windows 7, but that shouldn't really make a difference.
Perhaps your IMAP server (or something along the network path) cuts off
the connection after moving first few messages, and the rest remains
unmoved? Hard to say without seeing what you see.
