[Bug 72761] Evolution will not delete certain folders, claiming they are empty, even though they appear to be empty

[Chris Wagner]

Public bug reported:

I have several folders that exist under my Inbox of "On This Computer".  They've been there for some time, and I've just recently emptied all of the mail out of them.  Now, for whatever reason, several of them are not deletable - at least not through evolution; some deleted fine.  I get a message like
  Cannot delete folder "Inbox/school".
  Because "Could not delete folder `Inbox/school':
  Directory not empty".
Unlike this message indicates, the folder is empty as far as I can tell.

(to bug triagers: I will check for an upstream bug report when I get
time; no need to bother looking yourself)

** Affects: evolution (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
