GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 217877
Delete message functionality should move message to trash; else vfolders don't display hidden messages.

Description of Problem: Delete message functionality is archaic. Marking messages for deletion is a relic of the mbox format. Deleting a message only marks it for deletion; it does not move it to trash (since trash is only a vfolder). The suggested work around is to use "Hide deleted messages" However, this means the vfolders will not be able to use these deleted/hidden messages. Most people like to keep their messages for record and so it seems that deleting a message should move it to a real trash folder (not a vfolder). Then a user my store their old messages there. Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. 2. 3. Actual Results: Expected Results: How often does this happen? Additional Information:
