After deleting the emails, I find I still have a pile of "mbox.ibex" files that make up most of the 80 megs that is still in here. I don't dare delete them, as it seems they contain filter settings, and so on. How in the world do you compact or shrink these monsters...?Just delete them. They dont contain any settings, only a cache of information in the folder. In 1.2 these files auto-compact, but in 1.0 they do not.
A question about this, Evolution seems to use the mbox format. Can I switch to maildir? <possibly stupid question> Other question, can I use a second programm like mutt and read my mails? My Computer at work keeps running and running and sometimes I use the computer at home to login into the company network and I could read this way my emails.. At the moment I have no real mailserver here.. </possibly stupid question> Bye, Marcus
