Help -> Contents has a section on debugging things. You could also look at https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Evolution/Debugging All these things require Evolution to be started from the command line! Virtually all the help that is given here and on the web starts with "run evolution from the command line to see if there are any problems". If that doesn't show up any issues, turn on some of the debugging. You still haven't said anything about your setup - like if you are using POP or IMAP - but I presume you are using POP, in that case you need to run Evolution as CAMEL_DEBUG=pop3 evolution >& logfile from that you will be able to see if anything fails. > > All the software I run on the client side is "Standard" for Mint > Cinnamom.

Run Evolution in debug mode. You'll get considerably more information about what's going on than you could possibly need. Can I also say that finding out how to do this is not difficult. Google for "debug evolution" comes up with the above website as the first hit.

Re: [Evolution] Mails lost with Evolution 3.10.4 on Mint Cinnamon
Dear Patrick, My main frustration with Evolution is that there is no "command line" to work from. It's all from the GUI, which is fine ...when everything worksi.e. in practice...never If I wanted everything to "work" from the GUI...I'd use windows millenium or something In this case, if you can give me some instructions on how I can diagnose what is going wrong when I loose mail, then I'd be happy to run some tests. All the software I run on the client side is "Standard" for Mint Cinnamom. All the server software is set up using "ISPCONFIG" from the "HowToForge" website: www.howtoforge.com If I knew more about how the mail is being downloaded and if I could see what is happening during the download process when it is interrupted, then I'm sure i could find out what is going wrong.

It takes about 5 minutes for each one which is not a "high price" when I consider that all of them are running the most recent version. The upgrade from Fedora 21 to Fedora 22 did run about 2 hours over the network.

Just a fyi Debian is also a good choice.
