[Bug 803748] Re: Always error message while sending a mail

 

I have this error on two machines.

My mail folder structure contains sub folders. I have set up filters to
automatically save to sub folders. When I send a message which has no
filter and auto filing then all is well.

If I send a message that is filtered and filed to a Sent sub-folder, I
get this error report:-

QUOTE
Your message was sent, but an error occurred during post-processing.

The reported error was "Failed to append to mbox:///home/bob/.local/share/evolution/mail/local#Sent: Invalid folder URI 'mbox:///home/bob/.local/share/evolution/mail/local#Sent'
Appending to local 'Sent' folder instead.".
UNQUOTE

The message is sent ok and my copy is filed ok in a custom Sent sub-
folder

Title:
  Always error message while sending a mail

Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  It cames with a fresh installation of ubuntu natty 64bit.
  Fresh evolution profile.
  Every time I send an email I get the following error message:

  "Error while Sending message.

  Failed to append to maildir:/home/lviggiani/.local/share/evolution/mail/local;need-summary-check=no#Sent: Cannot get folder '/home/lviggiani/.local/share/evolution/mail/local/Sent': not a maildir directory.
  Appending to local 'Sent' folder instead."

  BTW the mail is actually sent and saved in Sent evolution folder.
  However this error is annoying as you always have to check whether you
  have this (fake) error or something else.
