Hi all, Has anyone seen Evolution "forget" which emails have been read in CentOS 4? I have a client that's reported he's reading his email, closes Evolution, and when he starts it again, the messages are marked as unread. I found bug reports about this here: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=273787 https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=4373 It's supposedly fixed in version 2.2.1.1. I'm running Fedora Core 4 and haven't had the same issue at all, so it does indeed look to be quashed. I'd appreciate some feedback.

(I gather mail from several places via pop3 to my workstation using Evolution). I have never had that problem. It might be an issue with IMAP folders though, I haven't personally used evolution much via IMAP. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I sent a bunch of messages to a pop account, and downloaded the messages with Evolution. I then read a couple of messages, closed Evolution, and reopened it. The messages I had read were still marked read - this is good. I then read two more messages, but this time logged out of Gnome without closing Evolution. When I logged back in and opened Evolution, the messages I had just read were marked as unread. The two messages from the previous test were still marked read. I've repeated the second test a few times; in every case it's been reproduced. Could you try my second test out and let me know if Evolution develops amnesia for you, too?
