As others have said (and I've now found by experimenting) the IMAP delete just removes the label - so the mail doesn't appear anywhere unless you select "All Mail". This is surely a Google "feature" and not something that Evo can (or should) deal with. > All it would take is to > add an option in Evo where you could set where deleted mail should go > just like for Drafts and Sent. No. Because of the way IMAP works moving mail to a "Trash" folder will cause too many problems - IMAP has a method for dealing with deleted mail (i.e. mark as deleted, then expunge) for a reason and fiddling with it creates too many other cludges elsewhere. There are lots of discussions on this list in the past about it. > Other e-mail clients has while > Thunderbird has a custom setting having the Gmail trash folder used. > That could be the other option for Evo: A custom setting for Gmail. So because Gmail decides to break a standard, Evo has to program around it?
