Description Matthew Barnes 2010-06-06 10:41:07 UTC 
Forwarding from a Fedora bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=600806


Description of problem:

When I start Evolution, for about a second the INBOX folder of my default
account is visible, then vanishes. I'm unable to read any mail.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

2.30.1.2, evolution-2.30.1-6.fc13.x86_64

How reproducible:

Always.

Actual results:

INBOX folder is hidden and inaccessible.

Expected results:

My, uhm, INBOX.

Additional info:

I've tried adjusting the folder subscriptions. I can select the INBOX in that
list and when I do, it does show up. However, after the next restart or after
going offline (where one now has to confirm whether one wants to synchronize
every time!) and back online, it vanishes again.

The INBOX is alive and well: I can access it just fine on Fedora 12 with
Evolution 2.28.3, with identical account configuration.

Seems that the following issues would be related:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=325289
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=603146 (in this one, seems that this is caused by old configuration files, but would be nice know what to clean instead of simply removing all .evolution dir)

Feel free to ask us any information you need for trying to solve this

Thanks

Is that still an issue or can this be closed as OBSOLETE?
Comment 3 Matthew Barnes 2013-08-19 14:15:02 UTC 
I think this is OBSOLETE now.  Closing as such.
