I am running an older version on Evolution on my desktop machine,
version 2.0.2, which runs under Redhat WS Rel4. On the older
version I setup a spool account called SavedMail. These are the
specs:
Server Type: Standard Unix mbox spool or directory
Path: /home/<userid>/Mail
This Mail directory contains numerous subdirectories where I store
saved mail based on topic, person, location, etc.
On my laptop I want to duplicate the same under Evolution 2.8.1
running on Ubuntu Linux 6.10 - the Edgy Eft. When I go into the
Edit menu and select Preferences I get the option to add new spool
account. Seems pretty much identical. I select Add to start the
definition then select the same Server Type of "Standard Unix mbox
or directory". Under Configuration I select Path and this is where
the trouble begins. All I want is to pick the same Path as
above, /home/<userid>/Mail where I have 500MB of directories and
files I transferred from my desktop. I type in the path and all it
wants is for me to open the subdirectories. What is wrong? Do I
have to select an empty directory and then move my data into it? I
tried this with no success!
Thanks!
