Hi all,
Has anyone seen Evolution "forget" which emails have been read in CentOS 4?
I have a client that's reported he's reading his email, closes Evolution, and when he starts it again, the messages are marked as unread.
I found bug reports about this here:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=273787 https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=4373
It's supposedly fixed in version 2.2.1.1. I'm running Fedora Core 4 and haven't had the same issue at all, so it does indeed look to be quashed.
I'd appreciate some feedback.
Regards,
Ranbir

I use evolution exclusively to read my mail in CentOS-4 in a local folder. (I gather mail from several places via pop3 to my workstation using Evolution). I have never had that problem.
It might be an issue with IMAP folders though, I haven't personally used evolution much via IMAP.

I just tried it in a CentOS 4 VMware virtual machine and I had the same problem reported in the bugs.
I sent a bunch of messages to a pop account, and downloaded the messages with Evolution. I then read a couple of messages, closed Evolution, and reopened it. The messages I had read were still marked read - this is good.
I then read two more messages, but this time logged out of Gnome without closing Evolution. When I logged back in and opened Evolution, the messages I had just read were marked as unread. The two messages from the previous test were still marked read.
I've repeated the second test a few times; in every case it's been reproduced.
Could you try my second test out and let me know if Evolution develops amnesia for you, too?
Thanks,
Ranbir

I was hoping to receive confirmation from someone else before reporting it as a bug. Anyway, thanks for the suggestion.
If anyone is interested, here's the link to the bug report:
