Do you have some reason to think this? What exactly are you seeing? > Is there another way to have Evo do this for me? If you mean empty your trash folders on exit (or equivalently, expunge all folders with deleted messages), then no. > What is everyone else doing? I leave the deleted messages visible and expunge manually. I use Empty Trash from time to time in case I've forgotten any. I don't like "empty trash on exit". All these are personal preferences. There's no right or wrong about them. poc _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
