Comment 35 for bug 197290

I rechecked this today and confirmed the bug still has not been fixed - although, it has changed slightly.

Evolution 2.24.3
Ubuntu 8.10
2.6.27-11-generic

Evo now gives an error message and does not allow the creation of folders larger than 2GB.

Error Msg:
"Cannot append message to mbox file: /home/user/.evolution/mail/local/mail.sbd/2Gtest: File too large"

When you reach this point, you have to manually make a new folder and a filter setting to route incoming mail there.

I guess this is a little better than having the folder mysteriously stop working. :)
