Re: [Evolution] Mail folders with Evolution and traditional mail clients

There are no "XML" summary files, god forbid!

The summary files should automatically re-sync, but sometimes they dont
and you can just remove them.

The main issue you'll have is the 'read' status isn't stored the same
way, but that really isn't the end of the world.  The other alternative
is use imap, or maildir format.
