This is really strange. Evolution uses maildir internally - you noted previously that "On this computer" was shown as maildir (and it is now too) - so how it is possible that the format "changed from mbox to maildir"? It seems that despite showing "maildir", Evolution actually used mbox for local mail? I don't know if it is even possible; I guess Milan, as a developer, could maybe explain more about this... But *if* Evolution previously used mbox, and the mbox file was very large, that might explain high CPU usage, because Evolution had to scan the entire mbox file when reading message... > I chose the migrate option, it wiped my back up so I can't re-import > those files (oh well) to see if it fixed anything. Where did you put your backup so that Evolution was able to wipe it? Didn't you put it somewhere completely outside of Evolution data directory? > Going to Edit-> Preferences-> Mail Accounts it now shows: > "On This Computer" = maildir > and "local_mbox"= mbox So you again created "local_mbox" account as "Local delivery" (mbox) and not spool? -- 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
