If so, that would explain why the db got messed up. For future reference: *always* run "evolution --force-shutdown" before doing anything that touches the Evo files. (Old Unix saying: Everyone runs "rm -rf /" ... once) As to rebuilding the db, as long as the actual messages are there (or can be recovered from your backup) you can just delete the various .cmeta and .index files and Evo will recreate them when it starts up. poc _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
