Title:
  Move is Copy + Thrash, should be Move that removes all traces of the
  first.

Status in The Evolution Mail & Calendaring Tool:
  Fix Released
Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: evolution

  #110272 [feisty] When moving mail between folders a copy of it is always 
dropped into the trash folder
  #362606 evolution filter will delete email and move email
  Evolution 2.24.3:
  The algorithm is executed wrong for Move:
  It should be:
  Move (A0 to A1): Copy A0 to A1;  Compare (A0, A1) ; 
                           If equal then Delete(A0) + Normal exit else 
Delete(A1) + failure exit;

  You need to delete the source in a move, the the move is successful. Should 
it fail, then everything needs to be undone, 
  You need to make the verification of the identical copy immediately, and not 
wait for further post-processing locally.
  The original copy has to be removed completely, and all traces removed. The 
omission to remove/purge/delete the original cause further errors - other 
emails may be deleted, you get the indexes wrong on the following email.

  The simplest is to load all messages into the Inbox before processing
  filters, even when multiple sources are scanned.

  That emails are deleted and lost is serious since it leaves the system 
useless as it cannot be trusted.
  Loss of emails is a gross security threat regardless of what the Ubuntu 
moderator may think.
