Remarks

What automation may do to a mailbox is the owner's decision rather than a rule's, so it is declared per account and per mutation instead of as one switch: an installation can run every rule it has with deletion refused, which is the case this exists for. A rule declaring an action its account does not permit is refused when the configuration is read rather than skipped later, because a rule that silently does nothing is indistinguishable from one that never matched.

Deletion is the one action that is opt-in. The other three are reversible from an ordinary mail client — a message filed can be moved back, a copy removed, a flag cleared — and a deletion is the one that is not, so an account saying nothing about it means no.
