I found why... The X-Evolution field is written that way : X-Evolution: uid-flags In my code, I inverted respective places of UID and Flags! :-) There were also a problem about the format used with g_strdup_printf()...

The patch I was speaking about also uses .ev-summary files to find MBox. :-) > 3) Evolution caches remote emails from an smtp server in a different > place and with different extensions/summary files - we will need to > crack those (Beagle source again is useful here) I has not sent the patch due to that... I do not have this cache. I read code in libcamel (it is used by Evolution to store/read email + write/read ev-summary and summary files) and I only found code about that cache into evolution-data-server-1.8.1. On my computer, I only have version 1.6 so I think I have to update some packages from Debian Experimental. But, is there somebody who uses 1.8 and who could run : find ~/.evolution -name "*-meta" ?? I would like to be sure that the code in libcamel is used! This cache is quite interesting because it only contains: timestamp, UID, flags, offset (in the file) for each email. So when an existing email is modified (placed in junk for instance) I can parse the cache quickly to find it instead of parsing MBox file (ouch!) or .ev-summary file (a little bit bigger than cache). > I will be happy to do the DB end of things for the emails once the new > metadata system is ready but lets get most of the above fixed first :) Laurent.
