Merely _looking_ at a message with Evolution alters it? That is _truly_

Thank you for the patch. To make it work, you need to define the
variable "folder_path". I would recommend this:
char folder_path[4096];
And then before using it, do this:
memset(folder_path, 0, sizeof folder_path);
Cheers.

Actually the attached patch is the "correct one". There is no need to

No, the "correct" way is to malloc the space as needed. PATH_MAX
doesn't exist on the Hurd.

Both is incorrect. PATH_MAX isn't required by POSIX and some systems
don't have it (the Hurd for example)
While I agree with your statements, it's strictly not possible in this
case - realpath() requires that the second argument be a string buffer
of size PATH_MAX (read the manpage).
