Correct, all mail goes to a Maildir folder with their own '.' name. This is exactly the same way Evo was setup on my old Mandriva box before it died including the settings that were in the screenshot. All that should be doing is telling Evo that 'Sent' is a separate folder in the Maildir folder. Maybe I should have mentioned, if I didn't, that I have this setup as a local IMAP account using CourierIMAP so in the Maildir folder I have cur, new, tmp for the INBOX and the rest of the folders are in '.' format. that have their own cur, new, tmp folders. But, you probably know this. And again, this problem doesn't happen every time but it's intermittent. For instance I just replied to another post on this list and it saved to the correct 'Sent' folder. I guess the real question is what does this mean: Error appending message: Stream has outstanding operation Chris -- Chris KeyID 0xE372A7DA98E6705C 31.11°N 97.89°W (Elev. 1092 ft) 07:56:19 up 3 days, 16:11, 1 user, load average: 0.00, 0.14, 0.25 Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS, kernel 3.13.0-37-generic _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
