Sorry to bug everyone on this again, I'm hoping the above got lost in the clutter (and I realise everyone's busy ;)... Evolution has continued to run in this "read-only folders" state. I'm really lost as to what's causing this. I've been receiving e-mails fine for the past while, I just haven't been able to create new folders, etc. whenever I subscribe to a new mailing list. I've tried having a look at all the files under ~/.evolution to see what could possibly be causing this but haven't come up with anything concrete. The entire file structure appears to have the correct attributes and all the config files look okay (admittedly to my noob eyes ;)... If worst comes to worse would purging evolution and then copying my mail back in possibly help with this?
