I'm on MX19

Evolution new emails do show up in the inbox, but older emails which were deleted or filed away (via the webmail) are still listed on Evolution inbox.

I did uninstall and re-install apt get evolution and got the same version 3.30.5, same problem.

I wonder is there a later version on MX21?

We need some more data than this to determine that.

What version do you have installed, for one.

I see in Synaptic that 3.38.3-1 is the latest one. No newer one in the test repo.

pop3 or imap?

I've 3.30.5 installed. It's odd you say Synaptic shows 3.38.3, the Synaptic I open from MX19 shows 3.30.5. I suppose that could be the problem.

IMAP

I am on 3.44.1 having installed the flatpack, after having had a bunch of proglems with gmail/google contacts and calendar with the default package. Everything now works great for me

FWIW am on a number of OS reinstalls, and seemed to need a clean system to get on the latest update branch.

Thanks,
that looks like the business. I am not familiar with flatpacks, never installed one before, hopefully I'll find out.
I'm using Tbird meantime, it works fine, I just don't like the look of it. I think I'll upgrade to MX21 when I've time, then tackle Evolution 3.44

Had never done so either, but the way I managed it In MX 21 was simply via the standard package installer. Last tab has an option to install flatpacks! Must admit it's all a bit of a black box to me, but working just fine

Thanks, I should manage with that.

I finally installed MX21.2 and have installed Evolution 3.44.4 from MX Flatpacks repo - just as easy as any other install from MX installer.

Thanks for the suggestion.

I would also like to change to version 3.44.4 from the MX flatpak repo, but I have the problem that I do not know how I then integrate the program into my dark theme.
I use Greybird-Dark as theme and then it doesn't look so great when a program has a light theme.

Maybe someone has an idea how I can solve this.

Thanks in advance.

Please start your own topic, thanks.

Themes of flatpak apps not matching the system theme is a known issue with flatpaks.

Newer builds of GNOME apps like Evolution very often require a whole new version of GNOME; something's that impracticable on stable Debian-based distros. I'll look at if it can be backported, but GNOME devs are infamous for this--they just point users to flatpaks.

Hi Stevo,

thanks a lot for your answer
