I have tryed moving my "local" folder from /home/milani/.evolution/mail/local to /windows/D/Evolution_Mail/mail/local, an then creating a symblink (ln -s /windows/D/Evolution_Mail/mail/local /home/milani/.evolution/mail/local) ; but when I Run Evo, I cannot access to the mail contents (I can see the list of mail subjects, I suppose because theya are stored on anpther directory, located not unser the link), and I receive the following error message "Tempo scaduto nel tentativo di prendere il file di lock /home/milani/.evolution/mail/local/Inbox. Riprovare più tardi.. " that translated in English is "Time-out locking the file /home/milani/.evolution/mail/local/Inbox. I suppose Evo cannot access to the path "/home/milani/.evolution/mail/local/Inbox".
Browsing the filesystem from the console, I can access (and also write) to the folder /home/milani/.evolution/mail/local, so maybe Evo cannot access to symblink folders.
Is it possible to "mount" /windows/D/Evolution_Mail/mail/local folder on /home/milani/.evolution/mail/local mount point? In this case maybe Evo will not understand the Trick.
Thanks for your help
Mario

While evo is not running, you could move your entire .evolution directory to where you want it, then create a symlink to that. eg mv /home/milani/.evolution /windows/D/Evolution_Mail/mail/.evolution ln -s /windows/D/Evolution_Mail/mail/.evolution /home/milani/.evolution If you don't want to move the entire directory, it would be just as easy to move part of it...
