GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 312088
Clear the search field after switching folders or closing Evolution
Last modified: 2005-07-31 13:52:39 UTC
Please describe the problem: A while back I had done a search in the mail folder "Sent". After that I hadn't cleared the Search field. Just a few minutes ago I wanted to check for a mail in that samen Sent folder only to discover that there were only two mails in it. First I thought of a data thrashing bug in Evolution, but then I noticed the search field still had my previous search term in it. This really might confuse novice users, it sure did confuse me. Steps to reproduce: 1. Do a search in a folder 2. Close Evolution or switch folders 3. Go back to the orignal folder and notice the search query is still there Actual results: Expected results: I would expect the search field to be cleared. Especially after closing Evolution or not having entered that folder the last few minutes (5-10 min. does seem resonable) Does this happen every time? Yes Other information:
