same as qwendolyn I guess. The work offline option had been toggled. I did not 
do this unless I was able to do it with a "hot key" combination.
But I am working again.

Re: [Bug 197290] Re: 2 gb max inbox

2008-12-16 Thread JohnT
Thanks Jashk,

It turns out that I wasn't suffering from the 2GB inbox issue afterall.
The whole /shared folder (includes home directories, which have inbox
files) was full.  So, evolution wasn't able to work with the Inbox file,
not because it was too big, but because the whole computer filesystem
was compromised due to a lack of space.

We dealt with that (but only after I had openned the Inbox in vi
(editor) and deleted half of it (simply by removing half of the lines in
the file).  I made a backup (or at least I thought I did), but that
didn't work (due to a full filesystem).

So, after clearing a lot of space, I hoped evolution would be back in
business.  Initially it wasn't.  Next step:  Rename Inbox index files
and restart evolution allowing it to rebuild index files for the now
half-size Inbox.  This took some time but worked.  I am missing half of
my Inbix, but that's all mail that's more than a year old.  I think I
can live without it.

I think this foolishness might be informative for some people (I am
probably not the first person to misdiagnose the problem); I am
considering posting it.  Also, because I thought my problem was due to
the 2GB Inbox size limitation, I learned about archivemail, something I
hadn't heard of until now.

I do have one remaining issue.  Evolution crashes when I shut it down.
I don't know why, but so far I haven't found any negative consequences.

Cheers,

John

[Bug 197290] Re: 2 gb max inbox

2008-12-12 Thread JohnT
Traceback (most recent call last):
 
Here are the errors I received when I tried to run the archivemail command. At 
the bottom you'll see that it's a space issue.  Can any one help?  I have 
backed-up the InBox file.  Has anyone tried deleting it completely to see if 
Evolution will function properly again?  Of course there's still the issue of 
reading that file or getting rid of old messages without openning it.

File "/usr/bin/archivemail", line 1475, in ?
main()
  File "/usr/bin/archivemail", line 691, in main
archive(mailbox_path)
  File "/usr/bin/archivemail", line 1130, in archive
_archive_mbox(mailbox_name, final_archive_name)
  File "/usr/bin/archivemail", line 1222, in _archive_mbox
archive.finalise()
  File "/usr/bin/archivemail", line 610, in finalise
shutil.copy2(self.mbox_file_name, final_name)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/shutil.py", line 92, in copy2
copyfile(src, dst)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/shutil.py", line 48, in copyfile
fdst = open(dst, 'wb')
IOError: [Errno 28] No space left on device: 'Inbox_archive.gz'

Thanks,
