can't empty recycle bin

Hi,

I have a problem since some days. I recognized, that my recycle bin contais approx 1 GB in size, so I wanted to empty it and delete the content finally. But I got an error trying to do so.
I tried it this:

1. right click on recycle bin (Müll in my german version)
2. selected empty recycle bin (Müll leeren in my version) from the popup menu
3. I got an error as result

The error says (Translated from german): Error on "folder is cleaned" Error while saveing "~/.evolution/mail/local/inbox (mbox): Summary and Folder do not match, even after synchronisation"

In german the original text is "Fehler bei Ordner wird gesäubert" Fehler beim Speichern von "~/.evolution/mail/local/inbox (mbox): Zusammenfassung und Ordner stimmen nicht überein, sogar nach einer Synchronisation".

Does anybody know how to fix this problem?

Thank you in advance
Juergen

Hi Leigh,

thank you for your reply. I guess this is only the trash bin of the desktop. I tried your command, but the evolution trash bin is still full and can not be deleted.
Do you know where it is stored?
