From a colleague, any ideas?"My inbox under Evolution seems to have corrupted itself such that I can see email received from April-May and over the last two days, but none of the prior months. I recently upgraded from RH 7.2 to 8.0, which seemed to work fine for a few days, but yesterday Evolution complained about header/summary data for some folders not matching the contents of the folders, then today it crashed, and when I restarted it had lost chunks of mail. I had shut down the system in between these occurrences, and Evolution had started up fine and seen all of the mail after the header/summary data error message, so I'm not sure if the problems are related. Does anyone know how to get Evolution to rebuild the summary data for the folder without losing the email?"
You can just manually remove the *.ibex* and *.ev-summary files in the folder directory, eg. ~/evolution/local/Inbox. That will cause Evolution to rebuild the indexes from scratch and hopefully fix the problem. -- Ettore Perazzoli <ettore ximian com>
