Yes I deleted the .evolution folder in my home directory.

I have no addresses in the address book - didn't import them yet.

We use MDAEMON for our mail server and it uses IMAP not IMAP4.

Evolution works fine - all the folders are there, the subscribed folders
on the mail server are there, sent mail folder, etc.. The only thing is
that the inbox shows up twice. Also, I have ran Evolution on Novell
Linux desktop 9.0 without sp1 and with sp1 and Evolution worked fine. I
also setup Evolution under Xandros 3.0 ( installed Xandros about 5 times
testing -and it worked fine for each install - same mail server in both
cases.

Unless I can figure out what is causing the problem, I have 3 choices -
ingore the problem ( not the right thing to do ), stop using Evolution
( does not solve the problem ), or erase SUSE 10.0 and reinstall ( last
resort I should not have to erase an OS just to get a mail program
functioning properly ).

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks
Bob
