MH uses sequences to track which messages are read, unread, etc. Users can use them to mark groups of messages with specific tags, etc. > Although i'm not sure the code works as well as it shoudl with this > (it is supposed to ...) you should just be able to create a 'mh' > mail tree inside evolution without having to change anything at all > ...

The #mh/ folderspace works in imap, but is broken with respect to sequences.

This sounds like it might work. --[Lance] _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
