bug#48577: 28.0.50; [PATCH] Lexical binding bug in nnimap-process-expiry


From: Alex Bochannek
Subject: bug#48577: 28.0.50; [PATCH] Lexical binding bug in nnimap-process-expiry-targets
Date: Fri, 21 May 2021 16:43:02 -0700
User-agent: Gnus/5.13 (Gnus v5.13) Emacs/28.0.50 (darwin)

When using an expiry target mailbox and an IMAP server that does not
support move (Dovecot as per nnimap-quirks), messages will be copied,
but not deleted after expiry.

This was introduced with use of lexical-binding in Gnus and the
difference between set and setq.

The below patch fixes the problem.
