Don't mind about it. Evolution is history. Canonical has decided to make Thunderbird the default mail client, and they did it right. The evolution of evolution got stuck in the last century. If someone is argueing "this is the way how imap is designed to work", he is not willing to make his piece of software user-friendly. This is a point which makes Apple so successfull. The user experience has to have the highest priority, not some old fashioned technical arguments.

Evolution developpers don't seems to understand the importance of this bug. So, evolution being the main Ubuntu MUA, I think this problem concerne Ubuntu. I explain you quickly the problem : The evolution Trash is a virtual folder showing mails marked as DELETED on IMAP server. In a "one user" on "one desktop" and "one OS", it's probably a really good think for all reasons given by evolution team. But in my environnement : multiple user, multiple OSes, multiple MUA, ... it's a critical probleme. For security reason (too easy to definitively destroy a mail) user the MUA must copy deleted mail in a real Trash mailbox on the IMAP server. I can use another MUA like thunderbird, but I loose the really good integration of evolution in ubuntu. http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=206061: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=206061 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/evolution/+bug/13983/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~tieto Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~tieto More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
