[Please don't top-post on this list] To reiterate what Pete and Andre have said: the best solution to all this is to use IMAP. You say you're already leaving messages on the server, so there's no reason not to do this. You will avoid all the headaches of copying stuff back and forth, (mis)-using the Backup function or futzing around with file internals. If your mail service supports IMAP, that's what you should be using. There is no reason to keep using POP if you have the option of changing. poc _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
