Bug Description

Binary package hint: evolution

I regularly use Evolution on two different machines (home and office) to access my Novell Groupwise server. Any emails that I move from the inbox to the cabinet on one client continue showing in the inbox on the other client. Refreshing the inbox folder changes nothing. The only consistent way I've found to fix the problem is to delete the folders.db file from the relevant account folder in my .evolution subdirectory. This forces Evolution to regenerate the local cache. After this the inbox accurately reflects the contents as they exist on the server and as they appear in the client on which the moves were initiated.

On both machines I'm using Ubuntu 9.04 and Evolution 2.26.1-0ubuntu1. The problem only began after I updated from Intrepid to Jaunty.

Thank you for your bug report, that's an upstream issue and should be opened on http://bugzilla.gnome.org, where the software writters will read it, by somebody having access to a groupwise server
