Re: [Evolution] Send/Receive on specific MailAccount - Minimum Poll-Time-Error - Passwords lost

[Thomas Mittelstaedt <tmstaedt t-mittelstaedt de>]

Richard,

I just remembered having sent a previous mail to the mailing list,
which might be of help to you. You could use fetchmail to get your
mail from the various accounts, optionally use procmail to do some other
processing and then store it somewhere, where evolution can pick it up
with one of the static accounts you can configure (mbox and others).
