Public bug reported: Binary package hint: evolution
There doesn't seem to be an option to have "Delete" actions on POP3-downloaded email sync'ed the remote mail server. This leads to inconsistency for people using such POP3 accounts from a Webmail interface. They delete email locally and expect the webmail server to match that but Evolution doesn't offer such an option. Thunderbird implements it as an option under "[ ] Leaves messages on server" as "[ ] Until I delete them". Granted POP3 is not as common nowadays but many ISPs still use it as a default and don't offer IMAP as an alternative for older accounts.
