Re: [Evolution] [ews] Possible to skip downloading messages for offline for a single folder?

[Thomas Dahlen <erikthomasdahlen gmail com>]

Hi,
Thanks for your answer!
Now I've changed values in the Account Editor/Defaults ..Use a real
Folder for Trash and Junk.
I have imap account.
Filter on this server.
I am accessing the account from serveral workstations.
I have several mail-accounts and the one on my own server is now working
with the drag and drop to pdf!
The one that doesen't work is my gmail-account.
