Description Michael Meeks 2013-11-19 12:52:14 UTC 
Routinely I get a dialog saying: would you like to recover messages not sent when evolution crashed (ONO).

The amusing thing about this is that (happily) Evolution is not really crashing that much these days; indeed - I seem to get this offer even for mails I've edited and sent quite happily some half hour beforehand.

Of course, I often have two or more mails partially written & open for a long period - so I assume a good number of autosaves are made, but ...

There's something really odd in the way that dialog appears.

Then again - the auto-save is a life-saver when Evo. does crash (eg. on adding an attachment ;-) so ... better too liberal with recovery than conservative ;-)
