I am having a major problem getting Evolution to index my Inbox properly. The symptom is that only the last week of my emails can be accessed/displayed, in spite of having a 1.3 GB size. This started about a week ago. Initially I thought it was that the Inbox size was getting too large, so I split it into two using mutt_mbox_split.sh. This is a bash shell script that invokes mutt to sort mbox files by beginning and ending date. The older email messages (750 MB) are indexed and displayed properly. The newer ones (500 MB) simply have resisted every effort that I could think of to index and hence display properly (and yes, I have done the usual removal of the various Inbox* files, and allowed Evolution to rebuild). The system is Evolution 2.32.1 on Mate 1.6.1 (a Gnome2 fork) on FreeBSD 10.0-RELEASE 64 bit running in a VMWare Workstation 7.15 virtual machine on an up-to-date 64-bit version of Windows 7. There is plenty of memory and disk, both real and virtual, for the task. This has worked properly for years, and the problem described here is recent. Everything else seems to work just fine. I would appreciate any suggestions on what I might do to get my Inbox working properly. I live off of email, so this is important to me. Frank Jahnke Sonata Biosciences, Inc.
