The evolution account was originally set up for a user whose home directory was on an nfs mount on /home2. We had to move to a different network, so the user's home directory path was changed from /home2/jko to /home/jko. This led to an error from Evolution when the user sent mail (/home2/jko/.evolution/mail/local/Sent could no longer be found). While looking at the properties of the Sent folder, the system suddenly rebooted itself. Office lights didn't flicker, so power interrupt not likely. A subsequent workaround to avoid repeate of Evolution's complaints was to greate a local file /home2/jko/.evolution/mail/local/Sent (matching what Evolution used under the original setup) - error msg has ceased, function seems OK, we're watching for another reboot or other pathology, will report such if and when it happens.
