I have a problem only emptying 9 particular emails with attachments.
Other emails (including others with attachments) are fine.
When I mark as read the 9 files in trash, they return to the folder they
came from (Sent).

Sadly, the problem came back again... also, I ended up with a lot of
duplicate messages being downloaded, including a lot of the junk that I
had to work so hard to delete once already. So, this fix is actually by
not sufficient.

there is not enough free space on the hard disc to empty the trash (yes

index files in post #6 works for me, though with a long startup time for
evolution after doing it while the index files are reinstated.

I've tried a few things, but the following seems to have worked for me.

It's only the vfolders (~/.evolution/mail/vfolder/...) that have no
index files, just cmeta files.
The normal folders (~/.evolution/mail/local/...) have both index files
and cmeta files.

I'm still stuck with a deleted items folder that cannot be emptied,
causing the Summary and folder mismatch error.
I first tried removing all the ev-summary files, which don't get

Neil, If you have organized Evo with different email folders instead of
one huge inbox, you need to delete the files you mentioned in each of

Mark, it does indeed have a variety of folders, and also some vfolders

I thought I'd been through them all, but I was working manually so could

I am also a victim of this error. Since I did a fresh install of 8.10
but retained my old /home, I ended up deleting a ton of ev files as well
as the cmeta,index and index.data files. This allowed me to delete the
trash successfully. Hopefully this will be fixed in the near future.

Hi, I think what I suggested at
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+question/50690
should fix things. Evolution changed it's mail format recently, so the
searching for ev-summary files doesn't do anything, which is why that
fix doesn't work in Ibex. instead remove the index /

None of the fixes listed here or on linked pages worked for me.
I noticed that the issue was with trash I deleted from one of the two
subfolders I had created. I moved all the mail from that folder to a
subfolder with a different name, emptied the trash and the trash stayed
empty.

This bug isn't about a crash - its about not being able to empty the

I will see if I can get a crash report, but that will be logged as a
