This is not an odd request ... I have had a number of occasions where a network glitch has occurred and evolution gets out of sync with the folder and refuses to get its act together. And different instances of evolution (i.e., home and work) have different views of whats actually present in the folder. it usually requires unsubscribing the folder, syncronising and going off line, then resubscribing again :( BillK _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list [email protected] To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
