[Evolution] Mailbox name not allowed
Hi! I've just set-up an POP/SMTP account on Evolution, and it receives mails without a problem. But while sending it gives an error as "Mailbox name not allowed". To see if there is a problem at the mail server, I used their webmail service and it was capable of sending mails. I searched the list archive but couldn't come accross a topic that fits a newbie like me. Thanks in advance for any help!

If it's an error when sending I suspect it's a problem with your "Sent" folder. Go to Edit -> Preferences -> Mail Preferences -> (Select the account) -> Edit -> Defaults, click on the button next to "Sent Messages Folder" and select the mail folder where you want your sent messages to go.

[Evolution] How to access .evolution via AFS from another computer
Hi, I'm currently upgrading to a newer computer and want to access .evolution located at an AFS area from that computer. Starting up evolution from the new computer only gives the startup wizard, not seamless switching from the old computer to the old one.

Re: [Evolution] How to access .evolution via AFS from another computer
Forgot to mention that I made a soft link to the AFS directory: ln -s /AFS/.../.evolution $HOME/ and the access rights are set up. Also the user and group accesses are OK.

There are also bits kept in the GConf subsystem.

This is not the case, I just want to use evo and other stuff on the new computer with .evolution on an AFS area. The difference is that on the new computer the home directory is not under AFS while the old one was. The AFS directory is backed up so i need to store all my valuable files there, e.g. locally stored mail folders. Are there any other directories you recommend to link to, now I have .evolution and .mozilla linked to the AFS directory.

Re: [Evolution] Evolution fails to see some messages in Inbox
I've had a short exchange with Patrick O'Callaghan off list; this is my reply to his latest, which may be of general interest. I have caused some confusion by not making it clear that my copy of Evolution runs stand-alone; i.e. it gets it mail from a POP server and sends mail to an SMTP server. There are no other mail servers involved.

JR: I just deleted all of the files Inbox.ev-summary* and Inbox.ibex.index*. When Evolution was restarted, it recreated them all apparently successfully. However the original problem remains, namely nothing shows up on the message summary window earlier than Sept 11 2007, but I can find earlier messages by searching the account though not by searching the folder. If people are interested, I can post logs of the restart, which was done from a terminal. I can't send the Inbox file because it's pretty big (179 Megabytes) and because it contains private correspondence. However I'll be glad to look into this however I can.
