Recently, I've noticed that my Evolution backups (Evo v.3.2.3, openSuse 12.1) have been varying in sizes, (6.9GB-8.3GB) and the produced archives have been reported as corrupt when I've tried to expand them into a new account.
I have also tried importing /home/user/.local/share/evolution/mail/local_mbox/Inbox into Evolution directly and was partially successful with the Inbox contents from 2003-January 2012 copying, but January 2012 to current not copying. I've also tried copying my entire home directory to a different machine running Evolution 3.4.4 with no success regarding historic email contents. Curiously, the installation that I'm trying to pull the backups from can read and search the 2003 - 2013 emails with no problem. I'd really like to do a complete backup of my 2003-2013 emails for migration to a new machine at some point. Is there a better low level method to do a backup and restore? Should everything in the inbox be restored when I import /home/user/.local/share/evolution/mail/local_mbox/Inbox? Thanks for clarification and enlightenment regarding this issue. _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
