When you use Evolution as an IMAP client, if you create new folders within an email account, it creates them on the IMAP server. Messages are moved about on the IMAP server, using Evolution as an interface. Evolution also caches things in its own way, for its own purposes. But that's just a cache. Evolution's "on this computer" section is its own internal scheme, messages stored in there are only available to that instance of Evolution. Evolution's "search folders" are another thing, altogether. They're pseudo folders, they don't really contain messages. They're just an interface to using filters on other folders. -- [tim@bigblack ~]$ uname -ipr 2.6.22.4-65.fc7 i686 i386 Using FC 4, 5, 6 & 7, plus CentOS 5. Today, it's FC7.
