Public bug reported: In my workplace, email is accessible via IMAP. The default mail client is Thunderbird (Windows). Thunderbird on Ubuntu does work correctly. I wanted though to use Evolution. However, evolution fails to show Inbox. Instead of Inbox it shows an empty, grayed-out "INBOX" (all-caps).
This happens both on a fully updated installation of 15.04, and on a fully updated installation of 15.10 (I installed it in a Virtualbox VM and updated it with apt). I have tried to reproduce it with Evolution 3.18, but: - The OpenSuse live Gnome image mentioned in www.gnome.org/getting-gnome/ fails to load the X server within Virtualbox. - In Fedora 23 Beta live (in Virtualbox), Evolution fails to connect to the IMAP server. I then tried to install Fedora 23 Beta to disk (within Virtualbox) but Anaconda crashed every time I tried.
