Does .local/share/evolution/mail/local/Sent (without a dot in front of "Sent") also exist (ls -l)? Wild guess: .Sent is an empty leftover and you want to use Sent instead, and have to adjust your default folder settings under Edit ▸ Preferences ▸ Mail Accounts ▸ Edit ▸ Defaults ▸ Folder. andre -- mailto:ak...@gmx.net | failed http://blogs.gnome.org/aklapper | http://www.openismus.com _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
