After a struggle with OpenLDAP and Thunderbird (core dumps all over the place when using Thunderbird with OpenLDAP backed users), I moved to Evolution, which is unsatisfying, since calendar function immediately makes Evolution crahs on all tested FreeBSD platforms (9.1-STABLE, 10.0-CURRENT). I tried mail/claws-mail for now and I'm surprised how "cryptic" and fast an email client can be, but I also have serious struggles with this email client. When fetch and filtering Emails from the account of our computer center's IMPA4 mail servers, the moved and even deleted emails remain visible (but greyished) in the INBOX or any other folder and marked deleted. Filtered and filter induced moves of mails also are greyed, still visible in the main INBOX of the email account but marked with the flag for new mail in INBOX. I can not delete them from INBOX. This behaviour is odd. I searched Grand Master Google for that and found relatively old bug reports about such behaviour, but that should be solved. I exclude misconfigurations, since I already configured those "immediate actions" as recommended. Nor Evolution nor thunderbird show that weird behaviour and they operate as expected on all mail actions. Maybe someone could give me a hint what to check. Personally, I consider this behaviour a bug and renders another email client unusable on FreeBSD, but I might be terribly wrong here and still suffer from a configuration inconvenience. Please CC me, I'm no subscriber of both lists. Thanks in advance, Oliver Hartmann
