Aha! Thanks, I think you've solved my problem too. Copying my old mailbox over from an older installation wasn't working because I didn't know about the .gconf stuff... Once I'd taken that across too it ran an import wizard the next time I started it up. I had to move the old mail back into "evolution" rather than ".evolution" as there were some paths assuming the old location, but I can now see a number of folders full of all my old mail. :-) Andrew. -- http://pseudoq.sourceforge.net/ _________________________________________________________________ Be the first to hear what's new at MSN - sign up to our free newsletters! http://www.msn.co.uk/newsletters _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
