Hi all - I'm new to the list, though I've been using Evolution for well over a year now. I'm having a problem using Evolution with a POP account in that it won't delete any messages. Here's the setup: My machine: Linux Laptop (RH7.2, evolution1.0.3.99-various-snapshots-usually-the-latest-though-this-problem-has-persisted) I don't control the mailserver, and it's running Qpopper 4.0.3, with no APOP support. Thus, I port-forward over an ssh connection: ssh -2 -L 4510:mailhost:25 -L 4500:mailhost:110 me mailhost So I point Evolution at that mailhost:4500 for receiving mail and mailhost:4510 for sending mail. I've turned on the "Leave messages on server" option, since unchecking that one sucks the mail off of the server and leaves me with no mail the when I'm done. (Sometimes I travel without my laptop and like to use pine.) So when I "empty trash" and "expunge" the messages leave my "Local Folders" but still stay on the server anyway. I've sniffed the connection and watched message downloads, but at no time has Evolution performed a "message delete" operation. Could the fact that evo sees this account as a "local folder" be relevant here? And just to be sure... Mozilla mail works fine in this regard, so it's not the server. (Evo is a better, nicer-looking email client, supports gpg/pgp, and doesn't die when my browser crashes, which is why I'm using it...) Any help here would be appreciated! Thanks! -Ian -- ________________________________________ Ian Forde, RHCE, SCSA, SCNA, SCDME, CCSA CYTBeN, Inc. ian jeigh com
