Furthermore, refetching messages unnecessarily is not just a matter of
how fast your network is, it's also hammering your mail server. Your
server admin (me) is not going to thank you.
I won't get mad if I stress my machine a bit extra...
Make your Evolution icon execute a script that does the following:
#!/bin/sh
evolution
evolution --force-shutdown
cd ~/.evolution/mail/imap/$EVO_ACCT/folders
for f in `du -a | cut -f2 | grep -v ^d`; do shred -uv $f; done
To appease the gods of Shell programming, I'd change the last two lines
to:
find ~/.evolution/mail/imap/$EVO_ACCT/folders -type f|xargs shred -uv
An from experience, I'd shred to
shred -uv -n5
Alternatively, you could symlink .../folders to a tmpfs filesystem, so
everything just goes away when you shut the system down.
That won't do any good either.

Is "common sense" really valid?
For example, it is "common sense" to white-power racists that
whites are superior to blacks, and that those with brown skins
are mud people.
However, that "common sense" is obviously wrong.
