Package: Evolution
Priority: Wishlist
Version: 1.2.1-1 debian unstable
Synopsis: Support for POP DELE command
Bugzilla-Product: Evolution
Bugzilla-Component: Mailer

Description:
Description of Problem:

Evolution does not support the DELE command for the pop protocol.
http://www.freesoft.org/CIE/RFC/1725/5.htm
This should be used to allow per message server-side deletion.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Keep your mail on the pop server to read it on more than one
machine/client.
2. Right click on a message, and look hopelessly for the remote-delete
command.
3. Wait until your mailbox gets really full to delete that message.

Actual Results:
The hassle to clean manually the pop mailbox.

Expected Results:
Allow remote deletion on server, per email and on filter basis.

How often does this happen?
Too much.

Additional Information:
I know very few client which do support this command.
