Milan - With apologies for the slow response (I've been away from this machine for several days) - thank you very kindly for the response.

However, I think you've identified a part of the issue: my Trash folder is not recognized as the Trash folder, despite the special icon, as the right click/contextual click doesn't have the option to "Empty Trash". I'll work on paring down the log to share - again, any suggestions for things to keep in the file would be appreciated. > Bye, > Milan > > Best, Bridger [1] https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution-ews/-/issues/124 > > _______________________________________________ > evolution-list mailing list > evolution-list@gnome.org > To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... > https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list >
