Some Evolution Filters Don't Work On Startup

Asked by cmnorton

I use quite a few Evolution message filters. They all work fine. Some, but not all, filters do not work, when Evolution starts up after it has not been running over the weekend. I don't leave Evolution running during the week. It is started up each morning.

What settings might affect this?

Sounds like a bug to me. What is the output of:

uname -a; lsb_release -a; apt-cache policy evolution

Thanks

Please send me the instructions to undo
 sudo add-apt-repository ppa:jacob/evo230 && sudo apt-get update;
This just broke my ability to send email.

This is funny. Yesterday I performed the instructions for setting a new repository and upgrading, but I did not see evolution upgrade. Then, I just posted help for undoing the changes yeterday. CTRL-N did not work. Then, I manually ran an upgrade this morning, and all these Evolution upgrades were available and installed correctly. So, now CTRL-N works again.

As to the original problem about filters, I won't know if the upgrade works until Monday, and I will post status then.

If you want to remove the PPA you can run software centre and click edit -> software sources -> othersources tab
