Milan, Thanks for the info. All went reasonably well, but I did run into one issue that I need to fix. One of the sub-folders didn't copy and now I'm getting the error "Error refreshing folder: STATUS Invalid mailbox name." What do I do now? I would really like to get this folder back.
two other question. My isp says they support pop3. Would I be smart to use that instead of imap+ and leave the mail on the server (which is what I used to do, and I assume Evolution 3.16.5 can still do)? Finally, I see a potential problem with copying folders. Assuming I want to keep my archive on my computer current, I will have to copy the inbox weekly or monthly. Then I'll have a mess of archives. Is there a better way of creating archives on my computer? Thanks, Dave On Thu, Dec 3, 2015, at 01:21 PM, Milan Crha wrote: > On Thu, 2015-12-03 at 11:39 -0500, dave boland wrote: > > Suggestions?
