Outlook is a terrible IMAP client and it seems that it is not accidental that Microsoft makes it a poor IMAP client. Outlook Express functions much better with IMAP so it's clear that Microsoft can make it work.
Expunging is the least of the problems when using Outlook on an IMAP server. Outlook is a challenge to use with roaming profiles, stored PST files on networked volumes, store 'sent' and 'drafts' anywhere other than the local PST, auto-archive on yet another local pst store, etc are far more significant issues than expunging.
