Re: [Evolution] Search Filters for Sent mail ??

[Thomas Mittelstaedt <tmstaedt t-mittelstaedt de>]

Bill,

I confess, I don't fully understand what you are trying to do! :-D.
But I can remember having had problems with mails in the Sent folder as
well and therefore configured in the preferences for each mail account I
have that the Sent folder is a folder different from the default Sent
folder. Maybe you can give that a try as well. 
> From my scarce knowledge of the evolution source code, the "special"
folders INBOX, SENT and DRAFTS are treated differently from normal
folders in several places. I am running the current svn trunk version of
evolution. You may try that, too.
Hope that helps.
