Re: [Evolution] Copies of messages not deleted on the server and multiple copies of the same downloaded

[Vincenzo * HI-Lab <vincenzo hi-lab net>]

Well all solved!!

It was enough to delete in ~/.local/share/evolution/mail all the folders with the name [number]@[hostname] with the exception of the directories "local", "trash", "vfolder". I checked and all messages were deleted even on pop3 servers.

Thank you so much Milan!

        Hi,

I do not want you do delete the 'local' directory, that corresponds to

the On This Computer account. You can safely play only with the

directories, which contain 'uid-cache' file. Also, do not delete them,

rather move them away, thus you can return them back in case anything

breaks.

        Bye,

thing too.
