When you configure a new mail account in Evolution, you can select from various account types. Among them are (these may be not exact English names because I use a non-English locale for GNOME): * Local delivery - this one *moves* messages from the standard system mbox to another place where Evolution keeps them * MH format message directories - I guess almost nobody uses it now * Maildir format message directories * Standard Unix mbox files directory * Standard Unix mbox file With all these options, you have to specify the directory or file where the messages are stored. Are you sure you selected the correct variant when you defined the account? Does your local mail system (I mean MTA, not Evolution) use mbox or Maildir? If you selected "Local delivery", this involves copying messages from the system location to the location Evolution uses. If the messages are large (or if there is eg. some problem with file locking), maybe this may cause unnecessary CPU load? Or, if you use mbox and your mbox file is very large, this will obviously cause CPU load. -- Regards, Jaroslaw Rafa r...@rafa.eu.org -- "In a million years, when kids go to school, they're gonna know: once there was a Hushpuppy, and she lived with her daddy in the Bathtub." _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
