Re: [Evolution] Flushing changes back to the imap server

[Not Zed <notzed ximian com>]

When you view another folder, the previous folder's changes are synced back.  This is the easiest way - much easier than quitting evolution.  I make a habit of changing folders every now and then just for this purpose (I tend to abort evolution with bonobo-slay or ctrl-c a lot when debugging stuff, and changing folders is a fast & easy way to sync).

I hope you're submitting bug reports for the crashes too - obviously it shouldn't crash!
