That is working except for Inbox. The number is not decremented when a
message is read.

I did what has worked before in this situation. I cd
to .local/share/evolution/mail/local_mbox and remove the file
Inbox.ibex.index. But when I restart evolution the error remains and the
Inbox.ibex.index is not recreated.

What can I do to fix this situation?

This has been discussed frequently on the Evolution mailing list. See
for example:
http://gnome-evolution-general.1774414.n4.nabble.com/The-Unread-count-bug-revisited-td2362812.html

Basically it's a bug. Recent versions of Evo are less prone than before,
but it still occurs once in a while.

Something that might help is:

#!/bin/sh

cd ~/.local/share/evolution/mail/
for i in `find . -name folders.db`
do
echo "Rebuilding Table $i"
sqlite3 $i "vacuum;"
done

Note that this is for Evo 3.x. Also, be sure to completely shut down Evo
before running the above ("evolution --force-shutdown").

If that doesn't work, try the Evo list, but be sure to say which version
of Evo you have (Help->Status), which you neglected to do here.

poc


It is Evolution 3.2.3. Your solution does not work neither do the other
solutions proposed on that web site.

Now what can I do?
