Hello Milan, I realize this has been a month since you replied to my "Too many user defined flags" message, but I did do a number of attempts to fix and have been offline for a couple of weeks.
Anyways, the error persists and I did the debugging you requested. It does not occur on a specific folder but on a specific account, which is an IMAP account with the provider 1and1. The account is here identified as "PC-1and1" Per your suggestion, I ran evolution as: $ CAMEL_DEBUG=imapx:io evolution After opening Evolution and simply waiting for it to do the initial startup I see this at the GUI message board: Error wile Storing changes in folder "PC-1and1:INBOX". Error syncing changes: too many user defined flags Then, on terminal the last lines (which seem related to the message) are: [imapx:A] I/O: 'A00314 OK IDLE completed' [imapx:A] I/O: 'A00340 NOOP' [imapx:A] I/O: 'A00340 OK NOOP completed' [imapx:A] I/O: 'A00341 UID STORE 942209 -FLAGS.SILENT (JUNK)' [imapx:A] I/O: 'A00341 OK UID STORE completed' [imapx:A] I/O: 'A00342 UID STORE 950698:950699,950977,950989,950994,951002,951049:951050,951053,95105 5:951057,951107,951133:951143,951145:951146 +FLAGS.SILENT (\SEEN)' [imapx:A] I/O: 'A00342 OK UID STORE completed' [imapx:A] I/O: 'A00343 UID STORE 951033 +FLAGS.SILENT (JUNK)' [imapx:A] I/O: 'A00343 NO [LIMIT] too many user defined flags' [imapx:A] I/O: '* OK Still here' The folder selected (i.e. the one to which the startup process defaults to) is not an actual folder, but a search folder that captures messages from all the inboxes. I have a total of 10 accounts in my evolution setup. 6 are IMAP accounts, 2 are gmail accounts and 2 are O365 corporate accounts. After the startup is done I then try to move a few evolution mail list messages to a folder in the same account, named "Evolution" - which is where I save all the messages from our mail list. Here is what I get in the GUI message board: Error while Moving messages into folder Boletins/Evolution. Error syncing changes: too many user defined flags And here is the sequence that happens in terminal: [imapx:A] I/O: 'A00365 IDLE' [imapx:A] I/O: '+ idling' [imapx:A] I/O: 'A00366 UID STORE 942209 -FLAGS.SILENT (JUNK)' [imapx:A] I/O: '* 2986 EXISTS * 10 RECENT A00366 OK UID STORE completed' [imapx:A] I/O: 'A00367 UID STORE 950698:950699,950977,950989,950994,951002,951049:951050,951053:95105 7,951062,951107,951133:951143,951145:951146 +FLAGS.SILENT (\SEEN)' [imapx:A] I/O: 'A00367 OK UID STORE completed' [imapx:A] I/O: 'A00368 UID STORE 951033 +FLAGS.SILENT (JUNK)' [imapx:A] I/O: 'A00368 NO [LIMIT] too many user defined flags' [imapx:A] I/O: 'A00369 NOOP' [imapx:A] I/O: 'A00369 OK NOOP completed' [imapx:A] I/O: 'A00370 UID STORE 942209 -FLAGS.SILENT (JUNK)' [imapx:A] I/O: 'A00370 OK UID STORE completed' [imapx:A] I/O: 'A00371 UID STORE 950698:950699,950977,950989,950994,951002,951049:951050,951053:95105 7,951062,951107,951133:951143,951145:951146 +FLAGS.SILENT (\SEEN)' [imapx:A] I/O: 'A00371 OK UID STORE completed' [imapx:A] I/O: 'A00372 UID STORE 951033 +FLAGS.SILENT (JUNK)' [imapx:A] I/O: 'A00372 NO [LIMIT] too many user defined flags' I did right-click on the folders ("PC-1and1:INBOX" and "PC- 1and1:Boletins/Evolution") and checked the labels. The INBOX has 13 labels, all with complete pairs "Server Tab / Label", while the Evolution folder had 9 labels, but only 3 were complete pairs. the other 6 only had the server tag, which I list here Server Tab - Label $Junk - $NotJunk - Business - Business conferences - Conferences _evolution - evolution - evolution_list - evolution_list evolutionlist NonJunk I did not setup the server tags and the options "Add, Edit, Remove" in the GUI appear grayed out to me so I cannot edit them. Any suggestions on how to proceed?
