Help with Email Evolution

Asked by Alessandro Rizzuto

I made a mistake: i have 1 hotmail account. When I first set up my account on evolution, I did not select the checkbox Leave message on the server. Now my server is empty. How can I bring my e-mails back on the Inbox server folder???

Open your Evolution and follow the steps below:

Edit->Preferences

On "Evolution Preferences" window: Select the hotmail account you want to change its settings and click on the "Edit" button.

On the "Account Editor" window, "Receiving Option" tab, make sure that there is a check mark on "Leave messages on Server"

HTH.

I've already done this, but all my old e-mails are not on the Inbox server. I want to bring my old e-mail back on the server.

Maybe it's possible to synchronize my actual Evolution Inbox folder with Hotmail Inbox server. Is it possible?

Wait! I checked my Bin server folder, and I found all my old e-mails! I dragged them in my Inbox server folder. Now it's all like before, thank you for your help!
