Better keep an eye open for different versions of Evolution on those installations. If I recall correctly, they changed the mailbox format somewhere. In my case, the IMAP server is actually a big plus, it enables me to have my mail available anywhere using a web interface, and plays nice with multiple machines (desktop and laptop for example). > > > > If possible switch to another MUA.

In any case, apart from this, I actually quite like evolution, I'm accessing the same mail from different machines, the common protocol being IMAP (and Google Calendar). Not from the same machine as in your case, where I see that could be a problem. I tried using Thunderbird before (a couple of years ago), but that didn't really work well on my setup, both technically (although that might have improved these days) and I didn't like the look and feel of it. Best case for me would be having my evolution issue solved, not switching to another MUA. Personally I doubt that many (if any) got this particular corner case just right. Regards, Steven
