Hi james
Thanks for your feedback !

Yes, I do have filters ...
... and I had / still have some set going to Trash correctly !!

What drives me crazy is another thing, i.e. :

My Folder structure are very methodic and organized.
Under ITC exist i.e. a folder OS containing an Ubuntu folder and then 
finally Users-List, showing as path like following:

\WSxxx\ITC\OS\Ubuntu\IG\Users-List !!! ;-)

Now, getting your mail I decide to keep it and move it to that described
folder !
OK, the move went there and the task seems done !?
Not really because Evolution places one more copy into Trash !!! ;-(

That's crazy and absolutely unnecessary !!

In my eyes this crazy / ugly habit, if it is meant as a features, makes 
Evolution UN-usable for me ! ;-(

But may be: It's my mistake because something I may have set wrongly !?


Another 2 features I am really missing are:

1a) The table of accounts cannot being sorted !
1b) Getting e-mails very curiously Evolution starts from bottom up ...
... instead from top (more important) down !!

2) The table of filters too cannot being sorted !!

I may add another postings regarding these 2 topics !?

Cheers, svobi


PS:
Generally I would love to install and use Lotus Notes as most preferred
PIM !!! ;-)
