Somehow Evolution is placing your stored emails and personal information in another location. Don't panic yet as Fedora may be using another location buried in another sub-directory. Since I use Ubuntu I can't say for sure on this. However, if its not somewhere in your home directory then the issue becomes a permission problem as read write access issues are going to happen. Since Evolution can download emails the issue becomes that while it can retrieve and store email (i.e. it has proper access to wherever the email data base is being stored) when you try to send an email as a regular user you do not. What you need to do is find out is where Evolution is placing its email data base. That can be done using gconf (apps >> evolution >> mail >> composer. It should say file:///home/username if it does not then it should tell you what sub-directory its in. --Shaun -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Linux Users Group.
