Hi,
Just discovered a strange issue with my evolution. I don't seem to be able to always navigate into sub folders using the directory tree on the left. More precisely I just cannot expand the tree as the little plus buttons aren't doing anything.
Well almost nothing I somewhat randomly discovered I can open any non responsive sub folder with the following procedure:
1/ Selecting any another folder
2/ Clicking "Send / Receive"
3/ Expanding one folder (other than the currently selected one)
n.b. I can't select the newly expanded sub folders at this stage or they vanish
4/ Clicking "Send / Receive" again
In other words I get one non accumulating expansion per Send/Receive pair. Weird, eh? Especially step 3 in which the sub folders collapse if I try and interact with them. Very quantum mechanical.
Anyway, so it is clearly not that serious but does anyone know what it might it. I checked the data and file permissions but that all seems okay and evolution doesn't print any warning to the terminal.
