Well, evo doesn't work since I made your suggested changes back to
~Maildir/. I don't even get mail in my Inbox anymore.
Let me go over the current status of settings, we must have missed
something.
Postfix and procmail:
Now deliver once again to /home/robert/Maildir/.
As evidence to this fact, KMail received my last email, evo would
not see it. I did try evo first before KMail.
Evolution
Under Tools/Settings/Mail Accounts/Edit/Receiving mail/
Server type: Maildir-format mail directories
Path: /home/robert/Maildir/
Local Folders - Inbox / Properties:
Set to maildir ( Maildir-format mail directories)
That's the best I can offer for now. I even checked permissions on all
pertinent directories from ~Maildir/ to ~evolution/local/Inbox/ and they
are all the same. (700)
