I just hadn't hit it yet :-/. When I went to work I found that my work system (also running Evo SVN HEAD, 2.11.5) had magically "disappeared" most of my Inbox while I was at home, just like my home Evo did. I removed the .evolution/exchange and .evolution/mail/exchange directories at work, and then my Evo there was fine for almost the entire day; I was beginning to think the problem was solved. However, about 5pm or so it happened again: my work Inbox went from having 130 message in it to having 4. Note that it's not just that there are only four summary lines shown: the counter of messages above the folder bar ALSO says there are only 4 messages there. Extremely disconcerting. Stopping/starting Evo does NOT resolve this problem--since renaming the directories does, though, I have to conclude that there is a bug somewhere that is corrupting the exchange summary cache on disk. And here's the kicker: when I got home my home version of Evo had ALSO jumped to having just 4 messages in it! When I left for work there were 130 or so, and no one was home all day (although I left my VPN running so the Evo at home WAS keeping up with mail, etc.), and when I got home just 4. This seems to imply there's a "feature" of the incoming mail itself that's instigating this corruption, NOT a GUI issue, since no one was using the GUI. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
