Title:
  Evolution stores mail insecurely

Status in The Evolution Mail & Calendaring Tool:
  Expired
Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: evolution

  The default file permissions for mailbox folders under
  ./evolution/mail/local/ include world-readability.  As a result,
  anyone with access to the system, who can determine the path to the
  mailstore is able to review all mail.  While cleartext email is
  inherently insecure, most mailtools take effort to ensure that
  mailspools and mail directories are neither group nor world readable,
  to raise the effort required to read others mail on a shared system.
