Re: [Evolution] evolution problem



Thanks much for the info, I booted my SLED box and evo 2.6 was connecting
fine so I figured there would be a good fix.
I brought the Mac to work today so I am using Entourage I will give that a
shot tonight when I get home.

There have been a number of bugs fixed in 2.12.1, FWIW.  However, a
number of known bugs remain.

When I get into a state like this I (a) shut down evo, (b) make sure all
evolution processes are gone (with kill or pkill or whatever), then (c)
remove all cached mail from my exchange account:

rm -rf ~/.evolution/exchange ~/.evolution/mail/exchange

if you have other types of accounts (POP or IMAP), as I do, be careful
to delete just the "exchange" directories.

After this Evo will be slow to start the first time as it recreates the
inbox cache, and the first delete will also be slow as it recreates the
deleted items folder cache.  But, it should solve all your connectivity
issues.

These days I have to do this every few days, mainly due to this bug:

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=478151

which is still happening consistently even on the very latest SVN
checkout.
