I upgraded from 11.04 to 11.10 and Evolution refused to load after the upgrade. Luckily, I backed up Evolution data prior to upgrade.
Ubuntu 11.10 has changed the default email client from Evolution to Thunderbird. Please refer release notes for 11.10 - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OneiricOcelot/ReleaseNotes It would be advisable to warn all up-graders of Ubuntu 11.10 to backup their Evolution files prior to upgrade. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/877534 Title: Evolution problems after upgrade to ubuntu 11.10 Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I upgraded to Ubuntu 11.10. Evolution decided to change my personal options. The option under "receiving options - message storage" was changed to: delete after 7 days. I LOST thousands of email. I can not access any of my email anymore from remote location via the web interface. This really sucks. This is very very very bad written code. It caused me a lot of problems.
