Last modified: 2012-02-13 15:20:03 UTC
Package: Evolution Priority: Normal Version: GNOME2.2.2 1.4.5 os_details: GNOME.Org Synopsis: no emails any more Bugzilla-Product: Evolution Bugzilla-Component: Mailer Description: Description of Problem: there i just a white screen in the email-frame! but no email is listed, but there schould be abaout 120 emails and 10 new mails. inbox (4) and (6) (before it worked perfectly) Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. i startet up evolution 2. i started (parallel) up a 2nd evolution 3. i closed 2nd evolution Actual Results: can't see the emails any more Expected Results: How often does this happen? first time Additional Information: Unknown reporter: hunter@x-tag.com, changed to bugbuddy-import@ximian.com. Setting qa contact to the default for this product. This bug either had no qa contact or an invalid one.
If you start Evolution from a terminal, is there any output? Is this a POP account or IMAP? Please add as much information as you can to diagnose your problem.
And reopen this report when you do so.
are you in offline mode?
If you open a second instance of evolution the right side pane which displays mails list will be empty. But if you click on some other folder and come back to 'Inbox' all the mails will be displayed. Probably the reporter would have closed the first instance of evolution. I am able to reproduce this with IMAP. In the console through which i opened second instance of Evolution has displyed the following information: "es menu class init application finalize called".
it's empty, no folder is selected, but the folder-tree is showing the folder selected.
anyone still able to reproduce this with evolution 2.4 or 2.5? setting to NEEDINFO.
Sure. REOPENing. The original report and NotZed's comment 5 do say it all, but let me rephrase this yet again: Steps to reproduce: * Mailer, select any mail folder * Open a new window, File / New Window That's it. The new window appears, the mail tree is populated, and the mail folder you selected in the other window is selected -- however, the entire right pane is empty. The mail list is not populated with the contents of the supoosedly selected folder. The mail view pane apparently is not displayed at all. Selecting any other folder after creating that new window works just fine. The initial state of a new window is not correct. This is NOT limited to IMAP. Adjustung Summary.
still in 2.6 according to duplicate.

This seems ok in 2.92.2
This does not happen anymore in 3.2.3 either. Closing as OBSOLETE.
