	Hi,
depending on when the job would be started, the deleted files might be
used by the Evolution or be in memory when they are deleted. They are
always referenced in the folder summary file (the folders.db file). The
libcamel is able to recover from "lost files in the directory they used
to be", only be careful to not run the job when Evolution is running or
do not complain when weird things happen when the job deletes the files
while Evolution uses them.

There could be created a module which can expunge the Archive folder
periodically or when a message is deleted in it, I think.

	Bye,
	Milan
