I've been meaning to mention this for awhile, and my appologies if this
has already been addressed..
I use an IMAP connection to connect to my local machine because maildir
format was not originally supported particularly well (detected subfolders
merely as root folders with longer names - ie .Lists.Evolution instead of
Lists->Evolution).. Anyway, this aside (as I've already mentioned it and
hopefully it is/will be fixed), I've noticed a number of weird things with
IMAP performance..
Mainly, I leave evolution open on my home machine when I go to work. At
work, I ssh in and use pine.. When I get home, evolution will often not
have noticed many of the changes I've made with pine, including message
deletions, etc. These deleted messages still show up in the message lists
in evolution, but when I click on them I get an error (because they're not
there anymore). But that's all that happens. Shouldn't evolution be
checking for LACK of messages as well as new ones when it does a mailbox
update check? And if the message is gone, shouldn't it remove it from the
list? This in itself is mildly annoying, but (at least in older versions
- hasn't happened in awhile) it would also occasionally segfault after
selecting several different nonexistent messages.
Anyway, just thought I'd mention it.
