As I've said it happens only with Evolution running.  It does not happen with Outlook Express.  I have one pop filter running on the local inbox, which isn't doing anything with the imap account.

SpamBayes does not run on the server...

SpamBayes is not serverside.  Again, NIH so I'm sure you didn't even take a moment to see what spambayes is.  spambayes.sf.net

Quick list of imap filtering:

1. Download message, make it as deleted
2. Check message for spam clues, place results in headers
3. Upload checked version to server
4. Purge deleted message

Somehow, only when evolution is open, the deleted copy becomes undeleted.  Then purge does nothing.

This also happens on a co worker's system who uses spambayes and evolution.  I used balsa for a while today and the problem never occured, but when I opened evo again I had a dupe in the first 10 minutes.

But you *didn't* add a header!  So when I click "show email source" or "show full headers", don't show it!
