I am running version 2.28.2 here, but I would assume that also 2.22 has the convention that mails belonging to folder xyz are in a file called xyz. Is this file there, e.g. in .evolution/mail/local/xyz ? If so, check it out with an editor and see if the data is there. You could also create a new folder and use evolutions import plugin to reimport that mail and see if anything is missing. Or maybe the following will help: http://www.go-evolution.org/FAQ#Why_do_I_get_an_error_.22Summary_and_folder_mismatch.2C_even_after_a_sync.22.3F As to backup/restore please be referred to http://www.go-evolution.org/FAQ#How_can_I_completely_backup_evolution.3F. Hope that helps. -- thomas _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
