Hi All,

I have a small problem with the ever-growing Evo's cache. I'll try to
explain myself by giving a small example.

I *had* an IMAP folder that housed close to 5000 emails. Since, that
was
taking quite some amount of space on the server and the fact that I
was
not able to read all those emails, I decided to delete the directory
from the server. The directory does not exist anymore on the server,
but
almost all of it remains in Evo's cache.
I am not an IMAP guy, however, if a folder is deleted in the server, I
guess, it should be deleted from the client as well (including any cache
w.r.t that folder).

How can I delete this directory (and many others) from the cache? 

Would it be enough to delete the directory from
$HOME/.evolution/mail/imap/accountname/folders/INBOX/subfolders/ ???

I just wanted a confirmation from the list, before I mess with the
cache. :)

Take a backup and try it. :-)
