It is simple not comparable with Evolution's feature set. In fact the ONLY way it outdoes Evolution currently (IMO) is the way it handles threading. If you want to handle gmail in this specific way, why not using offlineimap as an interface between evo and gmail (I do this in order to maintain an offline copy of my email at all times), it allows for 'true' delete to be reflected to gmail. _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
