Hello Patrick, The Inbox file is local.
My /tmp directory is on my root partition. I have 20 GB free on root. Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/md1 29G 8.1G 20G 30% / .. so things should be good there. I had some problems upgrading from Evolution 2.22 -> 2.24 (FC9 -> FC10). Every time Evolution tried to build the sqlite summary file it died trying to allocate 8GB of memory! So maybe my Inbox file has grown too large? Is a 487MB mail file too large for Evolution? To work around the conversion problem I followed some advice I found on the Ubuntu forums. The Ubuntu post advised that to avoid the mandatory conversion of the summary files, I should mislead Evolution to believe that 2.24 was already active on my account by changing some gnome registry keys. I did this and was able to start Evolution, it can read my mail file, etc. However I can't expunge my Inbox file. I was hoping someone on the list had discovered a work around for a similar problem.
