When using filters I can get incoming and outgoing emails to the appropriate folder automatically. However, Evolution insists on leaving a copy in the 'Deleted Items' folder. When I 'expunge' the Deleted Items folder all emails that have been deleted via a filter remain in the Deleted Items folder.
As far as I can see what appears to be happening is:- Initially an email is brought into the main Inbox or Sent folder, then the filter applied, then the email moved to appropriate folder and finally the original in Inbox or Sent 'deleted' by sending it to the Deleted Items folder. this results in two copies on the system. One in the filtered folder, one in the Deleted Items folder. This duplication may be why it cannot be 'expunged'. This is very messy and deserves more than a 'wish list' status. It is a bug!
