I have deleted messages from my inbox They are moved to the Trash folder.
I can not delete the files in the trash folder at all, currently it is sitting at 8500 messages and attachments and is eating up space. I need to empty this folder Expunge does not work. Empty folder option does not work either Any help would be appreciated.... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/21653 Title: can't delete messages in trash Status in The Evolution Mail & Calendaring Tool: Invalid Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: I'm using the Breezy preview release in combination with Evolution 2.4.0 I was amazed when I discovered that I can't delete e-mail messages in the trash, i.e. delete e-mail messages permanently. I simply go to the trash, right click a message and choose delete, nothing happens? I'm aware that there is an option in Evolution's preferences to empty the trash folders on exit, but that's simply not what I want, I want to decide which messages located in the trash I want to delete and which not. Evolution keeps surprising me, it's probably the most advanced groupware suite/e-mail client available on Linux, but it lacks the most basic things such as autodownloading of messages at startup (I found out that it will do that when you enable the option to automatically check for messages every x minutes, but to me that's a totally different option), and deleting messages from the trash. If the option to delete messages from does exist I'm very sorry for reporting this, I took some time to figure it out but I couldn't find such an option. http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=316375: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=316375 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/evolution/+bug/21653/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
