[Evolution] Why have my google account emails landed in the gmail trash folder ??

[Thomas Mittelstaedt <tmstaedt t-mittelstaedt de>]

Took me a while to figure that one out.

https://support.google.com/mail/thread/12510020?hl=en&msgid=27193008
got me on the right trail.

A faulty evolution filter moved the mail to some (local) folder. Now,
that misconfigured filter happened after import of evolution backup
archive after setting up a new box.

Dear maintainer(s):
As a precaution: could you change the default configuration of external
accounts to not automatically apply filters to its INBOX and/or be more
conservative when importing filters from backups (especially when they
apply to all mails).

Anyway, happy, that evolution is still alive and kicking, although I do
a lot of email / calendar / task stuff from my mobile device nowadays.
Have you thought about a smartphone evolution client?


Best, thomas
