Comment 26 for bug 365270

Disregarding the "database" problem, the point of view of the submitters of the two bug that were marked as dupplicate of this one is quiet different. There problem (and mine) is that, whenever a mail is moved along, a copy _appears_ in the trash folder (both with local mail and with IMAP folders).

I understand the technical reason not the delete the message from the server/mbox file immediately. But, as it is a technocal restriction, the user need not be aware of that. Read bug 209214 to see why people dislike this way of functionning.

Adding a mechanism (on evolution's side) which hide these message from the trash folder until it is really expunged. Moreover, I believe that expunging the email folders and emptying the trash folder are two very different thing. One is a detail of the implementation and should be hided from the user, the second is a standard part of user interfaces and should act the same way as it always act (or be called differently). The current situation is very misleading.

But this is more an upstream issue.
