Bug Description
Binary package hint: evolution
I'm not quite sure if this is a gmail or an evolution bug, so I've also reported it as a gmail bug, we'll see what happens.
The thing is that sometimes (not reproducible) evolution fails to download some of the emails from gmail. The account is properly configured and there is no pattern for the "failed" emails, like sender, subject or anything. The messages still appear on gmail, but Evolution won't download them anymore.
I've been some days wondering why Evolution wouldn't download some of the emails, and today I just gazed the message "failed to download message 2 of 8" in the download status window. Evolution had downloaded the first of all unread emails and then stopped, being unable to "catch up" or something and redownload them later.
Maybe gmail thinks that the client has downloaded all messages properly and marks them as "downloaded"? I don't know, but the "failed to download message X of Y" also confuses me.
I don't really know how to debug this, and it seems to be a protocol problem. If you give me further instructions I'll be happy to provide more information
Thanks

Thank you for your bug. Could you try if an another mail client has the same behaviour?
