But you say that you use Expunge - to everyone here that is identical to
"emptying the trash" - the "Trash" folder in Evo is a virtual folder of
all the deleted messages in all your folders - when you expunge a
folder, those messages disappear from the Trash folder.  If your Trash
folder doesn't work like that, then we are talking at cross purposes.

That is why people are talking about round pegs in square holes - the
trash folder is *not* a normal folder - in fact, it's not a folder at
all.
