Hmm, for me with any local folders (including inbox) it doesn't.  Button
activates when you press it but you don't get any line through the
message.  Delete key and ^D (and delete from Message menu or right mouse
context menu) all work as always.  My local folders are updated via pop
[and filters] and are mbox format.  I'm running Evo
9.0[+cvs.2001.03.16.09.00] from RedCarpet snapshots.  The last few days
I've noticed this.  I can't think of anything I've changed except
updating with RedCarpet (according to RedCarpet I'm up to date with
RedHat 6.2, Ximian Gnome Desktop and Evo Snapshots).
