I have a similar problem.I have a  little bit more than 100 messages that I can't cancel from the trash box. No chance whatever I try to do...
But new messages that I add get removed with no problem. Only these are "stucked"...

I'm running evolution2.24.1 on Ubuntu Intrepid.

Thanks in advance

for evolution-data-server;

Nothing much to say about the patch itself.

Maybe only one thing, it would be nice to have such 'ignore_no_such_table_exception' function globally accessible, because similar thing is used on couple of other places. Just a feature request, I do not know where to put such function and probably also other function for only text compare would be required.

In other words, it doesn't worth it at the moment, probably.
