Description Chris Archer 2009-07-10 01:45:11 UTC
Evolution shows incorrect number of unread messages if some unread message was deleted by another program.

Steps to reproduce:
0) *Message is received*
1) Check mail
2) Use another program or another computer or web interface to read and delete this message
3) Recheck mail

Result: the number of unread messages is not decreased
(I'm looking on paradox: inbox: 0 msgs total, 1 msg unread)

Expected result: correct number of unread messages

The only way to correct the situation is to delete ~/.evoution/mail/imap/%account%

If possible, please use improved imap support (IMAP+)

Can you please check again whether this issue still happens in Evolution 2.32.0 and update this report by adding a comment and changing the "Version"
field? Thanks a lot.
