Peter: I have also been having problems since about one week ago. I am using Evolution 2.8 on Ubuntu Edgy and my problem began within the past week or so...
I've been receiving the error "lost connection to backend" since last week. My new mail appears in my inbox, but the filter process never completes. The error message pops up before filtering completes. Don't know if my problem is related to yours, but given the date coincidence, and the fact that everything was fine until about a week ago, I'm guessing that there's some relationship. Did you get a prompt for some security updates? My problem seems to have started after I installed those updates. (AFAICanRemember, none of the security updates was for Evolution, but maybe there were some gconf updates there?) --Leigh -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of B S Srinidhi Sent: Sun 1/14/2007 3:46 PM To: evolution-list@gnome.org Subject: Re: [Evolution] Filter-folder oddity -- case of non-displayingnew mail Hi, On Tue, 2007-01-09 at 15:31 -0500, Peter N.
