Post #184,698 by scoenye 11/21/04 3:20:28 PM Reply	T-Bird I have had Evolution (1.x) stop working on two Debian machines. The problem is apparently related to the amount of mail in the store. After several reoccurnces is switched to Thunderbird. Haven't had a problem with is since v0.6.0

Post #184,805 by scoenye 11/22/04 1:26:02 PM Reply	Re: Which versions and how much mail? v1.0.5 and v1.0.8. The successors needed Gnome 2 and I wasn't about to go there. For my machine, the details are: 72 MB in the Inbox (260 msgs), 73 in a sub folder (204 msgs). This now seems rather odd. Some of the messages did include rather large image attachments, but those don't account for the above numbers. The index files are similarly bloated.
Post #184,815 by Yendor 11/22/04 2:10:18 PM Reply	That's odd. I'm running v1.4.6 right now, and my inbox is currently 205 MB (4215 messages.) I also have a spam folder that's 36 MB (3415 messages.) It takes a good 10-15 seconds for Evo to fully start up, but once it's fully functional, it's good to go. -YendorMike "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." - Benjamin Franklin, 1759 Historical Review of Pennsylvania

I have 15,000 messages in one folder and 35,000 in another. Probably another 20,000 in about 25 other folders. It doesn't even stutter.
