Patrick - Thanks for pointing this out. I should have added some disclaimers, to make my position more clear. I wrote mail clients on Unix, Windows, Mac OS, and Atari os over 15 years ago. I understand what Evolution is doing and why.
But I just wanted to reiterate that I don't think it should be implemented in this way in offline mode. It is counter intuitive. In effect, it would probably be better to hide these messages in the trash folder, to avoid confusion. Again, its not about a lack of technical understanding, but just a different view point. Viel free to check other email clients on linux, windows, or mac to compare the behaviour. All of that said, I do like to point out that your many contribution are welcome by myself and I am sure most of the Evolution community!

As has been explained many times (see the archives and the FAQ) this is simply a consequence of how messages are moved. IMAP servers do not support a primitive "move" operation, so clients have to copy the message and then delete the original. That's why you get a version in Trash, but of course Trash is just a virtual folder i.e. the original is in fact still where it was before the "move". You can see it by unchecking View->Hide Deleted Messages, which might make it easier to find than looking in the Trash folder, but it can still be a pain. If I had a million dollars to spare, I'd offer it to the first person to implement an "undo" command for moves and deletes. poc _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
