Hi Andre, I just noticed your response to my sync question. (Strangely, I don't think I got it as an e-mail and pasted your response from the archives).
I've downloaded the CVS version of multisync and installed it. I set both plugins to Ximian Evolution 2. It does fix corruption I introduce in using mailsync (what I use to sync regular mbox mail folders) to sync evolutions Inbox [after running mailsync, evolution complains about not being able to save the file, probably because mailsync only touches Inbox and none of the other files]. However, multisync doesn't seem to allow me to set the remote user/hostname of the machine I want to sync with. There also doesn't seem to be any documentation on the multisync site for the Evolution 2 plugins. Any idea how to configure this?
