Description Peter A. Goodall 2003-12-09 15:52:08 UTC 
Request from $CORP_CUST:

-----
There is no undo delete function in Evolution.

If you delete a message and immediately realize you didn't want to delete
that message there is no quick way to restore that message.

I already know that Evolution can sort the Trash in the order the messages
were deleted. However, that takes way to long. I have more than 20K
messages there. Plus my Trash is a Deleted Items Folder on an exchange
server which isn't as fast as local folders.

Evolution should remember the message number of the message that was just
deleted and allow you to undo the last operation to that message.

Most other mail applications have this feature.
-----

I know that there is an "Undelete" function, but I think his point is that
it takes forever to view the Trash folder if you do not empty it frequently.
