[Evolution] Shared folders and synchronization

[Patrick O'Callaghan <poc usb ve>]

We recently started using Cyrus shared folders for local mailing lists.
Evo seems to work fine, except for one detail: if I delete a message in
a shared folder, Evo will mark it deleted even though the folder does
not permit deletion. After restarting Evo, the message will again be
present (i.e. not marked as deleted).

So obviously Evo doesn't check if the folder permits deletion until it
tries to update the IMAP folder on quitting. It's not enough just to
change folders, or hit Send/Receive, or even go Offline and Online. You
actually have to Quit.

However if I try to move a message into a shared folder, Evo objects
immediately with a "Permission Denied" (as it should).

So I have two comments:

1) I don't see why it can't stop me deleting at once, since it has to
know the shared nature of the folder.

2) It looks like the *only* way to make sure Evo is completely synched
with an IMAP server is by quitting and restarting. Is this true?
