Milan, thanks for letting me know it's fixed, it is easy enough to click the middle button instead (really a scroll wheel, that's why I was avoiding it). As for "ancient", well, this is standard on CentOS 7, which is supported until 2024 and is the version currently supported by my university so I am staying with it.

As regards restoring the messages, I prefer to keep everything on an IMAP server, but that's up to you. Restoring those folders should work either way. poc ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

Reply-to-All is the fallback, and of course any subsequent replies in the same sub- thread are condemned to keep using Reply-to-All for the same reason.

That lets you copy folder structure as well (only Spool directory can work with the directory). With respect of the email need, I think it's logic, to identify yourself/account, even it's more important for the sending part (which you might have set to None for this account), than for the receiving part. Still it's used to recognize you in the recipients, which is important in replies and such.

Re: [Evolution] Storing messages
Thank you, That is almost what I want. I now tried once more and the confusing part is that I had to provide an email address to get tot he step where I could choose mbox folder. (Believe email address should not be needed for creating folders? - but it is a requirement on the first page of account creation) There is one large drawback here. I'm unable to create nested folders and when moving folders from my email account to the mbox folder it only moves the content of the root folder excluding any child folders. Reason for moving this mail is that my quota on even a purchased version of google is on the limit and with about 100GB of email which i very seldom need - but sometimes - it is good to have at hand without large processes of importing etc. -- Best Regards Tor Harald Thorland Mobil: 93032572 -Opprinnelig melding- Fra: Ángel Til: evolution-list@gnome.org Emne: Re: [Evolution] Storing messages Dato: Thu, 18 Mar 2021 02:07:18 +0100 On 2021-03-17 at 22:23 +0100, Tor Harald Thorland wrote: > It also seems like the export mbox is saving a folder or bunch of > mails, not visually like an own mail account which you will get when > opening / closing a pst. In evolution exporting a number of mails to a mbox file does exactly that: generate a file with those mails. If you want to view them as if it was an account, you need to configure that separatedly: File → New → Mail account, and in Receiving Email choose either "Standard Unix mbox spool file" or -probably more useful- "Standard Unix mbox spool directory". This way you can create a new account which loads a mbox you previously exported. Or, rather than going through that separate step, you could add the account first and then move the mails there.

Hi, your version is really ancient. There will be released 3.40.0 stable series shortly (tomorrow). It's a very long gap between 3.28.5 and 3.40.0. On a good side, this had been fixed meanwhile, I cannot reproduce it here.
