[Evolution] How do I stop evolution from duplicating sent items?

2019-01-01 Thread Russell Thamm via evolution-list
When I send an email, my provider places the item in the Sent folder.
Evolution also insists in putting the item in the Sent folder. 
Furthermore, Evolution always takes several minutes to do this.

Can I configure this Evolution to stop duplicating sent items? 

I'm sick of rebooting to Windows every time I want to send email.

What makes you think that your provider places items somewhere?
Which mail account type is this about? Which provider?
Which exact Evolution version is this about?

You can configure where sent items are saved to - probably the easiest
*work around* is to change it to some local folder (i.e. under "On This
Computer"). But that's a work around since you are still storing the
mail.

No, Evolution will always store the sent mail somewhere - this is a
GOOD thing. It's your ISP that's doing strange things - perhaps you
should be asking how you can stop them from duplicating items.

Why on earth would you do that?

Gmail automatically stores sent mail in its Sent folder. AFAIK there is
no way to turn that off (it's part of their "conversation" paradigm). P
ersonally I just configure Evo to use a local folder. This works.
