Description Milan Crha 2008-09-02 14:00:00 UTC 
I tried to delete folder with subfolders, it asked "are you sure", I replied "yes, I'm sure and ready to get rid of them", it got frozen for some time (not much, 1-2 seconds), then showed nothing. The status bar contains info:
Cannot delete folder "INBOX/...".
Because "no such table: INBOX/.../subfolder".

Similar info on console.

for evolution-data-server;

Similar to vee-folders, ignore 'no such table' errors. Should be fine here, but I didn't check whether other providers require such check even deeper. Maybe a stupid question, but do we really care about this error in general? Maybe only when trying to create table, or checking whether there is one, but otherwise?

We shouldn't be worying at all. Since, we do create tables automatically if they don't exist.
Comment 3 Milan Crha 2008-09-22 10:14:24 UTC 
Does it mean the more general patch, in code function, would be better than this?
