regarding that "can't empty trash"-problem and haven't seen it in a
long time.
You can get the patches from
http://www.t-mittelstaedt.de/evo-patches-2-28.tar.gz
and http://www.t-mittelstaedt.de/evo-eds-patches-2-28.tar.gz.

But you need to know how to build evolution from source. See
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/evolution-list/2010-November/msg00004.html.
Just check out the gnome-2-28 branch instead of the gnome-2-32.
I would be willing to assist you in building the app.

Hope that helps,
