Re: [Evolution] Junk mail and Gmail

[Andre Klapper <ak-47 gmx net>]

Hi Steve,

which type of mail account is this? POP? IMAP? Something else?

Is "Edit > Preferences > Mail Accounts > Edit > Defaults > Use a Real
Folder for Junk" enabled? If it is, what is it set to?

Is "Edit > Preferences > Mail Preferences > Junk > Check incoming
messages for Junk" enabled?

Is "Edit > Preferences > Mail Accounts > Edit > Receiving Options >
Options > Check new messages for Junk contents" enabled?

If both are not enabled then what makes you think that it is Evolution
that junks emails, and not Gmail itself?
How and where exactly did you find out that messages have been junked?

Why exactly can you not un-junk these messages in Evolution? What have
you tried exactly? What happened?

Deleting accounts or uninstalling software never fixes anything.
