Hi, I finally decided to try and use Evolution for my default emailer and when reading significant number of messages at a single sitting I ran into the following irksome problem. Is there a way aroung this? The most efficient way that I have found to read a volume of mail in a folder is to start at the oldest unread message and then to use Ctrl-D or P to read through the messages and deleting as required. Once I start at the oldest message I expect to be able to continuously read all the messages in that folder without any disruptions from the email program. Currently with evolution this does not happen as the open message (the one being read) will be replaced with the first message opened in the folder whenever new messages are added to the folder. Assuming 100 new messages in a folder, starting at the bottom of the message viewer (the oldest messages), open the message in a message window, read and use Ctrl-D or P to move to the next message. Further assume that you have read 15 messages by the time evolution automaticlly fetches new messages and one or more of the new messages are filtered into the folder that is being read. When the new messages are added to the folder, the message in the message viewer (should be number 15) will become message number 1. Close the message viewer, double click on message 15 and start reading again. Now at message 27 when new messages arrive. Now the message viewer will show message number 15 (the message double clicked i.e. the start of this string) when it should be showing number 27. Close the viewer, double click on the 27th message to start again and when messages arrive when reading number 54 ..... you're back to 27. When reading a folder worth of messages this is not an aid to producivity. Whatever message I am reading should remain in view regardless of what Evolution is doing and I should be able to continue with my reading without interruption. Does anyone have a suggested solution to allow a continuous flow of reading?
