Comment 7 for bug 13983

IMO this behaviour defeats the purpose of IMAP. The main reason for using IMAP, at least in my case, is to have my mail in sync, wherever I am. With Evolution I have to download heaps of "deleted" messages to my cell phone just because Evolution can't get it right.

If they can't understand that people use several clients on several OS and devices, then maybe it's about time to start looking for a new Ubuntu main MUA.
