Re: [Evolution] Receiving message count is wrong



Thanks for replying Ralf.

I use gmail as my mail server and access it using POP (inward) and IMAP (outward). As at this moment, I have 146 messages on the server, as I have not cleaned it up for a few days, but the countdown always stops at 19 or 20 (it's hard to tell because it clears so quickly at the end). It must be something that is remembered either on the server or locally, but I can't see how it could be the server because of the number of messages discussed above.

I'm stumped!

Cheers,
Doug

When Evo is downloading messages, a 'count down' appears in the left side of the status bar, to indicate how many messages remain to be downloaded.
Ralf replied ;):
Again, this could be one possibility, I don't know if Evolution has got a setting to chose it that or another way. But as already pointed out, some MUAs do _not_ show how many mails remain to be downloaded, they show how many mails are on the server, even those who were already downloaded before. This isn't a bug, it's a feature.
