It's a bug to me, because:

- The point of the trash folder is so that you can delete emails without having them gone permanently, you can go in the trash to find deleted emails and restore them, as long as it hasn't been emptied. I lose this functionality if I have to empty my trash folder regularly.

- My ability to search for deleted emails is diminished, as I have to sort through 100,000 other emails that should not be in the trash folder.

- Whenever I do manually empty my trash folder, it freezes up Evolution for 10 minutes. When it comes back, only ~5,000 emails were deleted.

- It simply doesn't make sense for items copied to another folder to also be copied to the trash folder.
