On further investigation, it seems that what's happening is this: * User selects a block of messages to move that is larger than some internal limit. * As the move process proceeds, the messages are marked deleted from the origin folder, but have not yet been copied to the destination. * The move fails with no notice. * The original state of messages in the origin folder is not restored, so the messages remain invisible in that client. > > TIA. > -- > Matthew Saltzman > Clemson University Math Sciences > mjs AT clemson DOT edu > -- Matthew Saltzman Clemson University Math Sciences mjs AT clemson DOT edu _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
