See for example: http://gnome-evolution-general.1774414.n4.nabble.com/The-Unread-count-bug-revisited-td2362812.html Basically it's a bug. Recent versions of Evo are less prone than before, but it still occurs once in a while. Something that might help is: #!/bin/sh cd ~/.local/share/evolution/mail/ for i in `find . -name folders.db` do echo "Rebuilding Table $i" sqlite3 $i "vacuum;" done Note that this is for Evo 3.x. Also, be sure to completely shut down Evo before running the above ("evolution --force-shutdown"). If that doesn't work, try the Evo list, but be sure to say which version of Evo you have (Help->Status), which you neglected to do here. poc -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
