The following is probably more useful than the last. These are two runs of Evolution and the backtraces obtained from running gdb. http://www.mcdermottroe.com/evolution.run.1.txt http://www.mcdermottroe.com/evolution.gdb.1.txt http://www.mcdermottroe.com/evolution.run.2.txt http://www.mcdermottroe.com/evolution.gdb.2.txt > > Problem B: > > > > The tree view of mail folders is not updated correctly when messages are > > marked as read.

In case it sheds any further light on the situation, my mail gets delivered and read as follows: (fetchmail & procmail & SpamAssassin) -> Maildir -> Evolution Thanks for the reply Conor
