Firefox's cache is a subdirectory inside your .mozilla/firefox/ directory. You can clear it from within the program itself. Evolution does something similar, as sub-directories inside your .evolution directory. And again, you use the program to remove contents when needed. This isn't Windows. Files aren't secretly stashed, your files are in your own homespace, in a structured manner, not splashed all over the place. Use the program to properly clear out its own files, rather than blindly deleting stuff. If you're trying to hide what you've been up to, you're going to have to do more than just delete files though, Fedora uses a journalling file system, by default. But if you just want to free up drive space, just let the program clear things out itself. You can set Firefox to only use a small amount of drive space. You can set Evolution to empty trash periodically (which'll remove what you've marked to be deleted, but not anything you want to keep). -- Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
