If I create an account and instead of setting the account to POP for receiving I set it to Maildir how can emails be retrieved under that account (given that there are no POP settings in it)? I mean how does one work with emails in Maildir format through Evolution in a practical sense?
Umm, you just click on them? It is almost entirely exactly like imap.
If you want to get pop mail, then you setup a pop mail account. If you want all your mail to go into the maildir folders, then you setup a filter to move them there. There are no giant leaps of logic involved here.
As above.I have been trying and trying and dying to find out but have found nothing on this anywhere even though Evolution is purported to support Maildir. I am asking because all my old email under KMail is in maildir format and I would like to get it into Evolution. Plus the fact that I
would prefer for my emails to be stored in Maildir format. Anybody? Thanks. Carlos _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
