[Bug 834335] Re: evolution forgot location of imap Sent folder after recent upgrades

 

I confirm this bug. The fact there is a workaround does not make it
incomplete. It should be fixed. Besides, the workaround didn't work on
my zymbra imap server.

Title:
  evolution forgot location of imap Sent folder after recent upgrades

Status in “evolution” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I use IMAP for email, and when I send email I have it stored in a Sent
  folder on my IMAP server. Recent oneiric upgrades broke this and I get
  the following error whenever I send an email:

  'Message was sent, but an error occurred during post-processing.
  ...Failed to append to imap:///....Sent: Cannot get folder 'Sent': folder does not exist. Appending to local 'Sent' folder instead.'

  This can easily be fixed by going to Edit/Preferences/Mail Accounts
  then selecting the account, click Edit, and going to the Defaults tab.
  Looking at the entries for Drafts and Sent, I only see 'click here to
  select a folder' rather than the folder I used to have prior to
  upgrades. I'm assuming this is some sort of migration failure.
