Thanks! I think we can all agree that Evo's support for Gmail isn't
complete. The discussion is whether it should be since Google is
breaking the rules of IMAP. One can dislike how Gmail works, but it's
still a very popular e-mail service which it makes sense to support also
for Evo. Several e-mail clients now have a custom setting for Gmail
(Thundebird) and others detect it's a gmail account and set Trash
according. Finally there's those where you can set a trash folder in the
same way as Drafts and Sent. One of these options would be great to see
in Evo.
