"Error while Expunging folder.
Permission denied."
Comment 2 Poornima 2005-03-21 10:34:30 UTC 
This bug still exists in 2.2.1
Comment 3 Sarfraaz Ahmed 2005-08-31 09:29:18 UTC 
Might have to back port the fix to 2.2 as well.
Comment 4 Khasim Shaheed 2005-09-02 05:20:21 UTC 
Now it says, 
"Error while Expunging folder.
 Could not empty Deleted Items folder."
Comment 5 Arunprakash 2005-09-12 10:20:51 UTC 
The error stated in the bug report is possible if you start evolution
in offline mode. If you switch to offline mode and try expunge, the 
error in #4 pops. It is because the offline mode is not handled in
expunge code. And fixing this requires to add a new string, so re-targeting
to 2.5

Committed to gnome-2-12 too, by using a near appropriate existing string.
