I'va had this bug many time. But this time, it look permanent!

PAt :-)

Are these error messages that evolution is displaying or are these your own descriptions? Either way, care to (try to) translate these sentences to English, for the benefit of those people not able to read French? 

This is an error message given by Evolution.  In english it would be something like (i'm french so it might not be a perfect translation!): ERROR DURING INBOX's FILE STORAGE The summary and the record do not match, even after a
synchronization.

This problem persist. I'm thinking about switching to another software if I can't find a solution...

Versions prior to 2.24/2.22.3, mailboxes are being corrupted by Evolution. Its fixed in 2.24. THe only known way to fix is to remove the summary and recreate it.

sqlite3 .evolution/mail/local/folders.db
drop table '<folder name>';
delete from folders where folder_name='<folder_name>'

restart Evolution. But your mbox is still corrupted by old version,

Summary and folder mismatch, even after a sync


Distribution: Ubuntu 8.10 (intrepid)
Gnome Release: 2.24.1 2008-10-24 (Ubuntu)
BugBuddy Version: 2.24.1


4 pop accounts, 1 imap account, 1 spool, 3 'none' used for aliases.

This is a fairly large mail store, a du -h shows 2.2G in .evolution

Deleted Inbox.ev-summary, problem still occurs and the file is not recreated.

attachment evolutionJanuary14200906-exitedproperly.dbg is the output of my last session.  Evolution exited properly on the last open/close, and I was able to change folders successfully with no errors for about 30 minutes.  It is always the Inbox that generates the error, no other subfolders have this issue.

I've located at least a temporary fix for this at https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution/+question/50690

Currently running Intrepid Ibex - Linux quad 2.6.27-9-server #1 SMP Thu Nov 20 22:56:07 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux


sudo nano -w /etc/default/apport

changed enabled=0 to enabled=1

sudo /etc/init.d/apport restart



As before, take Evolution into offline mode (File, Work offline)
Close Evolution.

evolution --force-shutdown

find ~/.evolution/mail/local -name "*ev-summary" -exec rm -f {} \;

New fix if you're running Intrepid, the way Evolution stores data is new ;)

find ~/.evolution/mail/local -name "*cmeta" -exec rm -f {} \;


Open Evolution again, and wait a bit as it re-indexes.  It shouldn't take very long, I've got A Metric Schwack of Email (tm) going back years.  I've started my current session from the command line with 

evolution --debug ~/Desktop/evolution-day-month-year-version01.dbg just in case something breaks again, but so far so good.

I got some entries like these below showing up in the dbg file on startup, but otherwise all quiet on the Eastern front ;)

(evolution:6792): camel-WARNING **: Could not find key entry for word '0563613035110764595880382303dpm1674': Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character

Hope this works for a few other people, this is a seriously frustrating error that is even harder to find a fix for due to the number of reports out there.
