Re: [Evolution] IMAP bug in 2.4?

This actually wont do anything, it will just delete all of your accounts
and other settings.  And as a side-effect, as you've discovered, it will
wreck all of your filters (even if you hadn't have removed .evolution
they would point to a now-removed account).

You "just" needed to remove the stuff in
~/.evolution/mail/imap/user host/  or maybe even just the one file
".ev-store-summary" in that directory.
