Hi all, Quick question: How do I sync my local MBOX mail between a desktop machine and a laptop? At least to start with, I only want my local mail synced in one direction (desktop -> laptop), so that I have access to my old mail archives whilst travelling, even if I don't have Internet access.
Currently, I am using a script which I got from the archives of this mailing list, namely: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- #!/bin/sh if [ ! $1 ] then echo "usage: $(basename $0) <destination host>" exit 0 fi TO_HOST=$1 GCONF_DUMP=~/.evolution/gconf-evo.dump.xml ssh $TO_HOST DISPLAY=:0 evolution --force-shutdown evolution --force-shutdown gconftool-2 --dump /apps/evolution > $GCONF_DUMP rsync -av --delete ~/.evolution $TO_HOST: ssh $TO_HOST DISPLAY=:0 gconftool-2 --load=$GCONF_DUMP ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The above script does everything apart from the local mail (does tasks, calendar, memos, IMAP accounts, etc). However, for local MBOX mail, it looks like it has worked (e.g. shows a folder as having unread mail), but when you click on it, the hard disk light goes for a bit, and then it decides that the mail folder is actually empty (i.e. you cannot access any of the individual mail items through evolution). I'm running evolution 2.22.3.1. Has anybody got something that might solve this problem? Preferably besides moving everything to IMAP ;-) -- All the best, Nick. _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
