           Summary: can't delete messages in trash
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: evolution
        AssignedTo: seb128 at ubuntu.com
        ReportedBy: svloon at xs4all.nl

I'm using the Breezy preview release in combination with Evolution 2.4.0

I was amazed when I discovered that I can't delete e-mail messages in the trash,
i.e. delete e-mail messages permanently. I simply go to the trash, right click a
message and choose delete, nothing happens? I'm aware that there is an option in
Evolution's preferences to empty the trash folders on exit, but that's simply
not what I want, I want to decide which messages located in the trash I want to
delete and which not. Evolution keeps surprising me, it's probably the most
advanced groupware suite/e-mail client available on Linux, but it lacks the most
basic things such as autodownloading of messages at startup (I found out that it
will do that when you enable the option to automatically check for messages
every x minutes, but to me that's a totally different option), and deleting
messages from the trash. If the option to delete messages from does exist I'm
very sorry for reporting this, I took some time to figure it out but I couldn't
find such an option.
