Thanks to those replying. The problem of sync was not an evolution
problem at all.
I tested with a manual transfer on a stick between the two devices
which showed that folders etc could be detected.
It took a short while to evolution to scan the new changes which was
unexpected but I proved evolution isn't the problem.
It turns out there it a default setting in megasync not to sync ".*"
files, which was why the folders and others were not syncing...
Duh! Undocumented feature. I set mega to sync ".*" files and guess
what, all works.
Thanks for the help all, this one is solved.
Andy
