[Gllug] Evolution won't fetch my mail (Help)

[Ian Baillie]

Thanks all.  Still no joy I'm afraid.  Whats worse is that it appears to
download the mail without being able to append it to my mailbox from one
of my accounts, which means the mail is being downloaded and deleted.

I will change my settings for the mo' to leave mail on the server, but
if anyone has any other ideas, I'd be grateful

PS I'm not an expert, but I'm willing to learn very quickly.

Quit Evolution and check that you don't have any stale processes lying
around. Also check that nothing else is using mbox, and that your disk
isn't full.
