Subject: unable to delete mail
Subject: unable to delete mail
Package: evolution
Version: 2.0.3-1.2
Severity: grave
Evolution is unable to delete mail. This "makes the package in question
unusable or mostly so", thus the severity. One can not simply keep getting
more mail without deleting any. Space is not infinite, so now I really
can't be downloading my incoming mail.
I have 6856 messages. In a vfolder with 627 messages, I select all but 44.
I hit the Del key, marking the selected messages for deletion. I choose
to Expunge the messages. I get the following dialog box:
------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- -------
Error while Expunging folder.
Error storing `~/.evolution/ mail/local/ Inbox (mbox)': Summary
and folder mismatch, even after a sync.
-------
I would not be surprised to find that this is a regression.
Back around the 1.1 to 1.3 releases, a similar procedure would
cause evolution to crash. The 1.4 release worked.
