Description Eric Lambart 2001-09-06 09:31:17 UTC
* Description of Problem:

Under Evolution Account Editor->Reciving Options->Message Storage, "Delete after <N> day(s)" remains greyed out even after "Leave messages on server" has been checked.  This functionality exists (and works) in all major MUAs and its absence is a major pain in the butt!

* Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Go to Evolution Account Editor window for any POP account
2. Check "Leave messages on server"

* Actual Results:
"Delete after <N> day(s)" remains greyed out, presumably because this functionality has not been implemented.

* Expected Results:
This functionality should absolutely be implemented by 1.0 (IMHO!!)  I'm marking it as Wishlist but I think I'm being generous...

* How often does this happen? 
Everytime I get a new snapshot, desperately hoping to see this feature implemented =/

* Additional Information:
I'm not the only one that wants this!

"delete after N days" is bug 201824. I'm marking this a duplicate
of that, but I'll also remove the grayed-out option from the
dialog so as to not taunt people :)
