Bug#640851: local mail spool still unaccessible with evo 3.4.4.-1
tags 640851 - unreproducible tags affects 679347 thanks This problem is even a regression: see #679347. Fedora people also have this problem: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=281674 (still not solved). But according to #679347, it is fixed upstream https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=679017#c4 See comment #3: Milan Crha [Evolution developer] 2012-07-18 16:43:50 UTC for evolution-data-server; Due to disabled summary loading the account didn't read previously saved messages in it and hid them from the user. How basically the same code could work in 3.2.3 I'm not sure at all, but this change seems to be correct anyway. Has this been backported to 3.4.4-1?

Bug#640851: local mail spool still unaccessible with evo 3.4.4.-1
severity 640851 serious merge 640851 679347 thanks This bug can easily be reproduced. I just created a local mbox account on a newly installed wheezy box (empty disk!). And the same problem is present there as reported in this bug report. In case you want the data used for that account, please let me know! (top-posting since I'm replying to my own emails) Thanks!
