I want to remove all of evolution since it's missed up (takes an eternity to load mails, probably need to clean up my gigant gmailbox).
So, I've done sudo apt-get purge evolution
, removed my google account in my settings and then the config folders in $HOME
as listed here
But even then after reinstalling evolution it still loads my email accounts as if nothing was erased.
What did I overlook?
Also, did you clean out your gmail acct, If you didn't Evolution is doing what its suposed to retreiving ALL of you mail.
As an aside, I find that the -purge option doesn't always remove everything. I occassionslly find that I need to manually remove some of the data cache files. To do so, type in the terminal 'find , as this in some, very few, cases finds cruft that wasn't removed as apt-get again only in some cases believes thatvypu still want to keep that data for later use.
I followed this topic. After executing the gconf commands, it still showed up my other online accounts as entered in system settings. After this i removed all of the home folders and evolution finally showed up the account-wizard.
