GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 481202
ability to remove these magical trash/junk folders
Last modified: 2021-05-19 12:27:20 UTC
evolution currently hardwires "trash" and "junk" folders into existence. i don't use evolution for junk mail filtering at all so the "junk" folder is particularly annoying. i also don't hide deleted messages in the folder view so "trash" is redundant. it would be nice if these two folders existed as normal vfolders that _could be deleted_ by users that they are a misfeature for.
This is almost but not quite the same as bug 206061.
Right, the Sankar's plugin patch there would help to Ryan.
This boils down to bug 206061. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 206061 ***
This bug is not solved by the resolution to bug 206061, so unmarking it as a duplicate. This bug is about entirely removing any Trash or Junk folders -- not simply about designating a new one.
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/Community/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new bug report ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
