You mean, it still displayed them in the OTHER instance of Evo, right? The one you were working in was up to date? > I came back a few hours later and it now only shows 2 unread which is > correct. > > Its as though there is some form of delay in syncing changes between > Evolution and the exchange server. > > Any ideas? Well, I'm still waiting for the answers to my questions. If you click the "Send/Receive" button, does your inbox update then? If you exit Evo and re-enter it, does your inbox update then? As I mentioned in my last message, I do see similar behavior to yours: when I get home, my inbox on my Evo instance there is in some semi-updated state. Most new email is present but so is a lot of stuff I deleted during the day. I click "Send/Receive" and it is all fixed for me (with a few minor glitches). You might try going to Edit -> Preferences, Mail Accounts, edit your Exchange account, and look at the "Receiving Options" tab. There are some options there for syncing your inbox. I have them all unchecked and I haven't played with them to see how they work with Exchange, but my advice would be to try those. _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
