        Hi,
what exact errors, please? The virtual junk/trash folders gather
messages marked as junk/trash. Those in the server side Junk/Trash real
folders do not be marked as such. As you have a patched version, let
Evolution use the real Junk/Trash folders instead. There's no need to
use the virtual folders.

Correct. I guess, and only guess, the "printed" files are stored there
as well, but I can be wrong.

No, those should be visible. Either you've some filter shown, or the
calendar factory failed to notice the change (which I consider
unlikely, but as long as the iCalendar files contain the data you
should see them. Try to restart the factory. You can check whether it's
running:

   $ ps ax | grep evolution

and when there's any process from /app/, then it's the Flatpak version.
Run:

   $ flatpak kill org.gnome.Evolution

which will kill them all. You can verify with the 'ps' command. Then
run Evolution as before and check the filters in the Calendar and Tasks
views.
