[Evolution-users] Missing messages in Archive folder

[David Lister]

Milan, thanks very much. I’m not aware of doing a search that might have created the situation but, from what you say, might it be possible that doing a search within the folder for messages that I knew contained a key word in the message body corrected the problem? In any event, all now resolved and I will know what to look for if it happens again!
By the way, I apologies for creating two threads of the same question which may have caused confusion!
