As far as I can see the message simply disappears when I delete it in Evo and is not moved to the [Gmail]/Trash folder as I would want it to be. It's not placed in the local trash either. All it would take is to add an option in Evo where you could set where deleted mail should go just like for Drafts and Sent. Other e-mail clients has while Thunderbird has a custom setting having the Gmail trash folder used. That could be the other option for Evo: A custom setting for Gmail. > > P. > > _______________________________________________ > evolution-list mailing list > evolution-list@gnome.org > To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... > http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list > -- //Christian _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
