[Evolution] using evolution in multiple locations
What method are people using when they need to use evolution in multiple locations. I was a pine user, I decided to take the plunge, evolution is great but I'm missing having all my mail in a central location. Is there a way to solve this? How can I properly backup evolution? I tried doing an rsync of my ~/evolution structure in a different place and ended up loosing a lot of info. I noticed contacts info appeared to be missing until I killed some processes that evolution appartently uses and restarted evolution. Meeting info was lost though and I'm not sure how to get this back. I really really wanna use evolution, but I really really need to be able to maintain info in two different locations. Anyone solving this problem intelligently? Thanks -jeremy ___ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution

Honestly, I've not used IMAP a whole lot, so I'm clueless, but I thought IMAP would just handle your INBOX. If I'm using filters to throw things in folders, will this carry over IMAP?

You can create folders on your IMAP server and modify your filters to sort into those instead of your local folders. Note that you can't create folders within folders, just folders at the same level as INBOX (at least *I* can't). ___ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution

What method are people using when they need to use evolution in multiple locations. It owuld depend on what you want to do, and now manageable you want your remote mail to be. I use Pine myself, but with no filtering outside of spam blocking, and dump everything to my inbox on my mail-catching machine. At home, Evo sucks everything out of the mailcatcher. I should probably set up IMAP, would do better :) ___ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution

However, a folder can only contain other folders /or/messages, but that's not a problem. Setup of uw-imapd was extremely easy, too. The evo docs about imap setup however were extremely difficult to make sense of, at least for me ___ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
