Re: Evolution mail: Deleted Items folder behavior

Replying/forwarding to a second list -

To the freebsd-gnome list: sorry for the additional noise -- I'm realizing

The Void Linux machine runs  XFCE, while my FreeBSD machine uses an OpenBox
WM. I keep thinking that perhaps I'm missing some library associated with
the fuller DE, but haven't been able to make any determinations.
