Title:
Initial configuration deletes existing .evolution directory
Status in The Evolution Mail & Calendaring Tool:
New
Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
I have my home directory on an NFS server and I access my data using
automount and LDAP. Previously I have been using openSUSE 11.0 on my
workstation. Now I switched to a new workstation with installed ubuntu
(Jaunty, 64-bit version). I logged in into my account (via LDAP).
Everything looked OK, I could access all my data on the NFS server.
I started the Evolution email client as I previously used to on my
openSUSE installation. The ubuntu Evolution did not notify me that
there was the existing .evolution directory with the complete correct
configuration, email folders etc. The ubuntu Evolution started the
initial configuration procedure IGNORING THE EXISTING CONFIGURATION.
It DELETED ALL MY EXISTING CONFIGURATION WITH MY EMAILS ETC.
Fortunately I have had a fresh backup of this directory somewhere.
Otherwise I would loose my emails.
