Is there a way I can force an expunge of an nnimap newsgroup?  If so, is
there a trail I can follow to ensure that the expunge happened locally,
was transmitted to the IMAP server, and was acted upon by the IMAP
server? I'm not quite understanding the Gnus docs where expunge is
concerned. I'm testing a setup where I receive email from GNU mailing
lists via IMAP on zohomail.com and send email via SNMP via icloud.com.

Why do you want to do an expunge at all?

The reason I ask is that by "expunge" I *think* (but am not sure) 
you are referring to an IMAP operation that has nothing to do with 
Gnus at all (beyond the need for Gnus' IMAP code needing to handle 
the operation correctly).

But it's possible you are not referring to this, and perhaps the 
easiest way to figure it out is to know why you want to do "it".

Regards,
