The problem seems limited to a very big local Inbox folder. My Inbox collects mails from three POP accounts and is 178 MB. One of the accounts is configured to "leave messages on server".
Now I found a "solution" for me: it's comment #4, but slightly modified: I shut down evolution, renamed Inbox to Inbox2 (and Inbox.sbd to Inbox2.sbd). I deleted all *index*, *meta*, and *cache* in .evolution/mail/local/ and restarted evolution offline. To my surprise all messages in Inbox seemed to reappear (from where??). But clicking on them showed "the message does not exist". Thus I selected them all and pressed Delete. This gave me finally an empty Inbox and a 178 MB Inbox2. Since then I moved/copied/deleted hundreds of mails to and from Inbox2 with no problems. So just don't let your Inbox grow to 100 MB or more. (this is a good advice anyway ;-) ** Summary changed: - evolution 2.28.1 says "Summary doesn't match the folder contents" after deleting/moving mails! + evolution 2.28.1 says "Summary doesn't match the folder contents" after deleting/moving mails in a big Inbox -- evolution 2.28.1 says "Summary doesn't match the folder contents" after deleting/moving mails in a big Inbox https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/483058 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
