No, because it's not a cache then. The cache just contains local copies of data downloaded from the server (plus a few oddities). > I need to delete that back up so the cache can be flushed. > There is nothing in the help file anywhere , thats why I'm asking > There are corrupted files in the cache and they need to be removed > That cache needs to flushed Deleting .cache/evolution is *the* way to do it - but make sure all evolution components are not running before you do it. Certainly evolution will create the cache when it starts, but that's not copied from anywhere. What I suspect you are seeing is information that isn't stored in the cache. Have you tried simply deleting the account in evolution and re-creating it? If it's 7 years since you've used the account data, then it definitely needs to be deleted and reconfigured - removing the cache will not do that.
