Use the master branch, but a simple evolution-rss package rebuild should help as well, if it has new enough sources.

The evolution-rss needs to be rebuilt against updated evolution. > (evolution:3973): camel-local-provider-CRITICAL **: scan_fi: > assertion 'path != NULL' failed > > (evolution:3973): camel-local-provider-CRITICAL **: scan_dirs: > assertion 'path != NULL' failed I believe the two above are the problem. Evolution tries to refresh the folder, but the account doesn't have properly set the path to the root directory of that account. As I said earlier, there had been similar issue in the past, which is already fixed, but your ancient version might have it still broken. There's a chance to fix this manually, by editing corresponding .source file in ~/.config/evolution/sources/, it's the one which mentions BackendName=maildir in which you can see also something like this, taken from the local.source file: [Maildir Backend] Path=/home/user/.local/share/evolution/mail/local Your account might have the Path key empty. Make sure evolution-source- registry process is not running, then edit the corresponding .source file, change the Path key to the appropriate path, then restart the machine (thus the background processes are run in the correct order, an `evolution --force-shutdown` might do the trick too, even there had been some changes around what is stopped and what not in the past too).

Running evolution from terminal yields : (evolution:3973): libebackend-WARNING **: module_load: /usr/lib/evolution/3.12/modules/evolution-module-rss.so: undefined symbol: em_folder_tree_set_selected Failed to load module: /usr/lib/evolution/3.12/modules/evolution-module-rss.so (evolution:3973): camel-local-provider-CRITICAL **: scan_fi: assertion 'path != NULL' failed (evolution:3973): camel-local-provider-CRITICAL **: scan_dirs: assertion 'path != NULL' failed (the two last lines being repeated few times and then :) RSS Plugin enabled (evolution 3.12, evolution-rss 0.3.95) soup init() It looks like ths may be the problem... but googling this error didn't help...

I think there was some UI glitch which showed the path as None even it had been properly set in the background, but it's a long time since 3.12.9 (the current stable series is 3.28, if you wonder), thus I can be wrong. > > According to the user documentation, account data is stored under > > ~/.config/evolution/sources/ > > Are that folder (plus your MailDir folder itself) writable? > > > > Yes they are. Sorry I forgot to mention I made these tests also. It's the path in the corresponding .source file which matters the most. When you run evolution from a terminal, does it show anything? I mean like a runtime warning, not anything with enabled debugging. You can try to right-click the folder name in the left folder tree and pick Refresh there, even couple times, if it's available in your version. Also, checking content of the newly created folders.db file may give you a chance to see whether evolution(-data-server) found the mails. If it's there, then you might have set some filter in the Evolution view for that folder. And as there had been another glitch in the past, which made it look like the folder has no filter, but it had been filtered anyway, I suggest to do some filter, like "Subject contains a", and then clear it.
