hmm.. that would break the theory of relativity. but, I don't see evolution as broken. View the trash folder as all messages in all folders that are marked for deletion. You have two ways of deleting each message: empty trash or expunge the real folder that the message lives in. > In real life, I take an object from one location (a folder), and place > it in another (a trash basket). It cannot exist in both places at once. but in evo it isn't actually moved to the trash folder. You mark it for deletion + the trash folder is just a convenience that allows you to examine the full set of messages marked for deletion. > Until I explicitly empty that trash basket I should be able to get that > object back out of the trash. if you want evo to behave that way, then simply don't go expunging messages from you folders. > But for now, I'll adapt to the software (which is not right) and just > wait for a configuration option post 1.0 :) Isn't all you are really after the ability to hide deleted messages from the real folder? You can do this from the Actions menu. It would be nice if there was a keyboard accelerator attached to this action. I get the impression I'm missing something here about the way you are working with evolution.. but I can't figure out what.
