Wouldn't inotify catch this and require a reindex?

Any chance someone who uses evolution could check this on 0.2.7?

It wouldn't be hard to notice new cache files (ie. downloaded

Not at the moment, (at least as far as I know, and I don't even know
if its still a bug) you want to be the first?

I think in the Thunderbird backend we got a little luckier in that the
mork db's are updated when we have all the content downloaded, and
thus we reindex, does evo do the same?
