        Hi,
there is only an option to close the message browser window on Reply,
but not when deleting the message.

Unfortunately neither this is possible. This would require cooperation
from the mail providers and neither then it would be easy, especially
with HTML messages and the conversion from HTML to plain text (see what
message structure the messages from Outlook have, the beginning of the
HTML part is a long CSS description, instead of message text, thus
getting message body right would be tricky for HTML messages). I don't
say it's impossible, I think it would be interesting to have, it's just
that it might not work for all kinds of messages (plain meeting
invitations as sent by Evolution itself too).

Feel free to file (or find, if there are such filled already)
