Nathan, it looks as if a fix for this problem was "released" a week and a half ago. Do you have any knowledge of the progress on this? I have one system here running Ubuntu MATE w. Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS and am manually tracking released updates/fixes every few days, and the problem persists.
I have another system running 20.04.5 LTS, which doesn't have the problem, and which I'd like to bring up-to-date. I'm reluctant to do so until this problem is fully addressed since Evolution is my everyday go- to MUA, and I send a lot of emails, and having to deal with this problem every time would be a major PITA. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to libcanberra in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1983794 Title: Evolution not deleting autosave files Status in Evolution: Fix Released Status in evolution package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in libcanberra package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Running Ubuntu MATE, Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS. Evolution v3.44.1-0ubuntu1 was installed with the distribution on a new system and received settings imported from an earlier version on another computer. When composing an email, if the process takes long enough an autosave file is created as ~/.local/share/evolution/.evolution- composer.autosave-xxxxxx ("xxxxxx" is a random 6 character string). When the email is successfully sent, the autosave file SHOULD be deleted. It's not. When evolution is shut down and restarted I'm asked if I want to recover an unfinished email. Answering No to this will delete the autosave file, but otherwise it persists and the recovery query recurs the next time I open evolution. Other people are having the same issue, see https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution/-/issues/1972. The Gnome people aren't dealing with it, perhaps considering it a distro- specific bug. On a system used by many people this is a potential security issue.
