Strange MOVE behaviour

In my TB128.7.0esr I have a Profile with several IMAP-accounts all residing on the same IMAP-server.

For ONE of the accounts, when I do a move (drag-and-drop) of an eMail from A to B (ex: from Inbox to Folder or from folder to Inbox or .....) - in Thunderbird the eMail becomes available in the target, and is removed from the source - on the Server directories the eMail stays in the source and is as well in the target and this until I do a compact or until I close Thunderbird

For OTHER accounts everything happens immediately !

I couldn't find any setting that might imply this kind of behaviour

And yes, I checked, the icon during the drag-and-drop, it doesn't have the +sign on it, so it's NOT a copy

Any ideas what might be going on ?
