All Mail is a Gmail label which in effect matches all your non-deleted and non-spam mail independently of which other labels it has (i.e. in which other folders it is stored). Given that Gmail labels are not in exact correspondence with Evolution folders (a message can have multiple labels) it might be better to de-select All Mail (see under Folder->Subscriptions), though I don't know if this will solve this issue. poc _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
