I'm attempting to get my old email under control. I have about 450M in an 'OldMail' folder in evolution. It's stored in mbox format.
If I tar up the entire 'OldMail' directory which includes this list: total 427933 -rw-r--r-- 1 jcooper users 86 Oct 10 2003 folder-metadata.xml -rw------- 1 jcooper users 95 Aug 18 12:51 local-metadata.xml -rw------- 1 jcooper users 434518823 Aug 19 15:24 mbox -rw------- 1 jcooper users 762091 Aug 19 15:24 mbox.ev-summary -rw------- 1 jcooper users 928768 Aug 19 15:24 mbox.ibex.index -rw------- 1 jcooper users 1550676 Aug 19 15:24 mbox.ibex.index.data Can I just remove it? Will evolution barf on it disappearing? Also, later down the road, if I copied it back into place, would evolution recognize it correctly? I guess the point I'm really trying to get at is this. Does evolution rely solely on the contents of this directory to tell it what mail is there? Usually I would just experiment, but this data is too critical. :( tia, Cooper. _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
