What version of Evolution?  What type of mailbox [local, POP, IMAP,
IMAPX, Exchange, Groupwise, ....]?

I don't think MOVE is the same as DELETE (although they might be the
same in IMAP protocol terms) - most clients for a MOVE will do a COPY +
EXPUNGE {id}.  So the message will not appear in the source folder as
deleted, it will just be gone.
