Hi Milan,
I should just trust evolution.
I thought when you go into a folder it sorts it out and rebuilds etc
but it in fact does it on exit.
Since this odd thing I am doing only happens in one folder I in fact
need to do nothing at all.
Evolution will just fix that one folder if I just put something there
or if I have done nothing then when I exit that folder its all fixed.

Thanks anyway. I am very happy again.

Thanks
Luigi
