I have the exact same problem as described above. Am using jaunty with what I assume is the latest version of evolution (I just ran sudo apt-get update and installed all of the software updates that came up on the software updater) Messages show up in the .evolution/..../inbox file if I open it with a text editor but are not visible in the inbox folder of the evolution client.
Now I'm willing to bet that this problem is a lot more wide-spread than being reported here, I've been using evolution for a couple of years now and it never occurred to me to check if I was "loosing" messages until recently because I was expecting some rather important news. Had I not thought of using my ISP's web mail client I would never have noticed that messages were getting to their server, then being retrieved/deleted (that's how I set my evolution client) but not showing up in my evolution inbox. Folks, even if I'm wrong and this is not a widespread problem, this is not a low importance issue, think of the potential consequences for people, missing notices from banks, medical institutions, etc. As an added note, after futzing around, turning all of my filters on and off, and hiding and un-hiding all my inbox messages an well as all my deleted messages and changing settings to leave retrieved message in the server, the missing messages suddenly appeared in my junk folder, but not highlighted as un-read! Is it possible for messages to be stored in the .evolution/..../inbox file, yet show up in the junk folder? -- messages stored but not displayed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/501972 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
