[Bug 13983] Re: Evolution virtual trash / "real" trash on IMAP server

 

Oh, jofa, man you are so in the dark. "Old fashioned technical
arguments" is what your Linux is built upon. On open standards, which
are being adhered to. If you want to have user experience to have higher
priority than old fashioned technical arguments, go to Microsoft. They
broke a great deal of standards just to have feature X, thus helping the
user experience.

Also, note that the problem here is not with Evolution not adhering to
standards, but Exchange violating standards.

Title:
  Evolution virtual trash / "real" trash on IMAP server

Status in The Evolution Mail & Calendaring Tool:
  Confirmed
Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Hi,

  This bug refer to the bug 12439 of evolution
  (http://bugzilla.ximian.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6061).
  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.
