The Evo spam folder is called Junk. Are we talking about the same thing? Junk is a virtual folder. Trash in Evolution is also a virtual folder. "Moving" a message to Trash (or equivalently deleting it) simply marks it for deletion, meaning it shows up in the virtual Trash folder. However it hasn't physically gone anywhere. This is the way IMAP is designed to work, though some other MUAs don't seem to realize this. It means that undeleting can be done by simply flipping the "deleted" bit. To really remove deleted messages you can either empty the Trash folder (File->Empty Trash) which will remove all messages marked for deletion in any folder, or more selectively use Folder->Expunge (or Ctrl-E) which only affects messages in the current folder. Try setting View->Show Deleted Messages to get a better idea of what's really going on. poc _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list [email protected] To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
