For some reason my Gentoo distribution is still calling Gnome3 unstable, so upgrading Evolution is not an option, until Gnome3 is found stable. I was able to solve the issues. In Folder->Subscriptions, I had every singe folder checked. I don't remember doing this my self, but I have been using Evolution since it was Ximian, and I have history since 1999, so who knows what has transpired over time. I unchecked all the subscribed folders (hay, a select-none button would be nice), and restarted Evolution. Upon restart, the blank folders where gone. But upgrade was not required. _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
