Is there any idea when this bug is gonna get fixed?

I appreciate it's not a critical bug but it has been open for nearly one-and-a-half year now...

My apologies for posting here, I am aware this is an upstream bug but I already have an account here and don't wish to open an account at gnome.org just so that I can post a comment; I'm drowning in accounts and passwords to remember :-)

Perhaps it can be chased up from here?

Cheers
Emile

on the drowning in accounts & passwords... I feel your pain... aren't we all :-)

Unfortunately, we depend on the upstream priorities and/or willing hackers to go in and correct it. So... it may take a while indeed.

This is apparently not a priority. I have to delete the spam from the junk folder, then expunge it to get it emptied in Gutsy.

Still broken in Jaunty - just lost all my deleted items when I tried to expunge stuff in the Junk folder. Any closer to a fix in 2009?
