Hi All. I am writing a script to back up my mail to another machine. I've already asked a question on this list and now see my files in mbox format but I've got some questions about the other files in the dir. ~/evolution/local/* are a bunch of folders corresponding to the data in tree view for Evo. For all the mail folders in the subdirectories is an mbox file. I just need to concat the old messages to the new ones like so... $> mv mbox mbox.messages_old; cat mbox.messages_old mbox.messages_new > mbox; rm mbox.messages_* Now when evo initializes on the remote machine (say I want to look for an old message) will it update the other files in this directory or do I have to do anything else?
