Re: [Evolution] Folder confusion

[Gerd Röthig <dac324 yahoo de>]

Hello Douglas,

here's what I would do:

1. Exit Evolution completely by doing evolution --force-shutdown
2. Delete the folder $HOME/.cache/evolution/mail (leave all the others untouched)
3. Restart Evolution

This should force Evolution to re-sync all the mail folders with the contents on the servers.

Kind regards.
