Re: [Evolution] vtrash imap folder



does anybody know how to disable the vfolder "Trash" (or general vfolder
support) so i can use my real IMAP trash folder on the IMAP server
instead?

AFAIK that is not possible. Some infos about that topic:

The "Trash" Evolution uses is not local (as you mentioned) but indeed
virtual.

IMAP has a command to "delete" mails -- that means, marking mails for
deletion. That is the way it is intended by RFCs.

Other mail clients using a physical trash folder, do that on its own.
The actual used name depends on the used mailer and can be lower/upper
case or even localized. As there is no real standard, you can end up
with several "trash" folders.

Using a physical "trash" folder by other mail clients does not use the
delete command only but really moves mails around.

Are there any plans to implement an option that allows to use the real 
IMAP Trash folder?

Several "trash" folders could be avoided if the user could define his 
trash-folder name in the options - just like the "Sent" mail and 
"Drafts" and so on...

Yeah, there is an open bug (wish) about this topic in bugzilla, if you
wanna call this "plan"...

Maybe you wanna add your last Paragraph to that bug:

Anyway - thanks for the reply, Guenther...

You're welcome... :)
