I just confirmed that changing themes in XFCE changes the buttons in 
Firefox. Hence I am pursuing the same line of investigation. Things 
might be different for KDE though. :-\

I might have a very dumb way of investigating this. On my system I 
searched for file names with "junk" or "trash" in their names in 
/usr/share/icons. This tells me the "junk" icon is found under 
<theme>/<sizexsize>/actions named as mark-mail-junk.* or 
mark-mail-notjunk.*. And similarly trash icons can be found under 
<theme>/<sizexsize>/places.

So my suggestion would be to look for the corresponding files in your 
current theme, and see if they indeed are so similar. If so, you can try 
changing to a theme which has more distinguishable icons. With the above 
information you should be able to make an informed choice. Then you can 
file a bug report in Bugzilla against the faulty theme.

But if changing the theme doesn't change the icons and the icons in 
Evolution actually match to icons from a particular theme, then maybe 
evolution has cached some older theme icons somewhere and an Evolution 
bugzilla should be in order. :)
