I think we getting closer ... I do NOT have a dir like that ?? in
~/evolution/mail/ nor the files cache-pop://

Wait ... Checking something

I found the problem ... !! 


I think after my harddisk crash the "mail" dir was gone and there was no
directory named mail. 

There was a core file named "mail" and if I did  "mkdir mail" he said
that is exits. I openend it and is binary ?? No glue why ??

So I deleted it and type mkdir mail and mkdir pop3 and hit send&recieve
twice and WOW evo deletes mails from the server.

I check something more. 

If I do chown on the mail dir for example to root, he now recieves the
mail twice again. So maybe that's is the problem that other users have. 

When they import from a earlier installation or so  ( and do cp with
root rights and not use import tool for example, I do cp to but with the
right rights ) and the dirs has not the correct user.
 
If I delete this dir and it doesn't exits, evo greated one for me, but
if exits but only with other rights, he recieves the mail twice, maybe
there should a warning or so ?

But many many thx to point me to the solution. If you not give me that
with the dir I never ever find that out ...


Thx again ...

Erik with many greetz from Berlin
