[Desktop-packages] [Bug 346352] Re: folders.db gets out of sync with mail server
** Changed in: evolution Status: Confirmed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/346352 Title: folders.db gets out of sync with mail server Status in Evolution: Fix Released Status in evolution package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Binary package hint: evolution Evolution stores local information about IMAP server directories in ~/.evolution/mail/imap//folders.db This file will frequently get corrupted and out of sync with the real number of messages in the folders on the server.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 346352] Re: folders.db gets out of sync with mail server
I had the same issue with Evolution 3.2.1, and solved deleting the file folders.db inside ~/.local/share/evolution/mail/1295611670.31535.6@cvs28. So now the folders.db is no more in evolution/mail/imap, but in evolution/mail/GUID. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evolution in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/346352 Title: folders.db gets out of sync with mail server Status in The Evolution Mail Calendaring Tool: Confirmed Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Binary package hint: evolution Evolution stores local information about IMAP server directories in ~/.evolution/mail/imap/server name/folders.db This file will frequently get corrupted and out of sync with the real number of messages in the folders on the server.
