Comment 9 for bug 182799

I can also confirm this with an additional issue: Evolution doesn't clean up pop mail on mail server period. Not with the use of "Delete after X days' as not when the settings saying to clean up de mailserver directly after retreival (so no checkmarks set).

Using:
Ubuntu 2.6.24-19-generic (x86_64 bit version)
evolution 2.22.3.1

external mailserver running on a RAQ. Large commercial organisation is running my webserver. Never had any problems with them (subscription period of 8 yrs plus) and their infrastructure has (and still does) always worked with WIN/Outlook/Echange Server/Thunderbird and Linux/Kmail/thunderbird etc.

The problem is specifically with evolution. It simpy doesn't clean up the server, not directly nor does it do it after x days (if so setup).

I have been tracking this bug for a while now and I must say that it is taking way to long to fix. If you want to become a vailble and sustainable (business) alternative for outlook/echange and finally get the business users over stuff like this should not be happening anymore!

I really hope this gets fixed soon, since I am a really big fan of the whole open source project, however for me this is a yet another signal that evolution is still not ready to fulfill the Exchange functionallity that we need to run for our businesses. And at the end of the day that is waht we use it for ;-)

Kind Regards JAL
