Ingo,<br>
Thank you for the suggestion. I tried that but I still have a
problem. When I run akonadiselftest it complains about mysql server.
If I do the command "service --status-all" it shows the mysql
server is running. See below: I've also tried to reinstall mysql and
when I run akonadiselftest still has the same results. Test #3 fails
and says it can't find the mysql server so I searched for it
(mysqld) and it lives in /usr/sbin/mysqld. I opened a terminal and
echo $PATH. That returns:<br>
<br>
/opt/android-sdk-linux/tools:/opt/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools:/home/beatty/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance for any help you may provide,<br>
John B.<br>

Just remove all the akonadi data and configuration from your system

That's not necessarily true. Some messages might only be stored in
Akonadi's database, e.g. until recently moving multiple messages from an
IMAP folder to a local maildir folder only wrote one of the moved
messages to the physical location of the local maildir folder. (FWIW,
copying multiple messages from IMAP to local works as expected.)
I encountered similar problems with moving/copying messages between
different IMAP accounts.
Moreover, I think that some (probably dispensable) meta information
about the messages (e.g. replied, forwarded) is only stored in Akonadi.
At least, for some types of accounts, e.g. maildir.
Consequently, blindly purging all Akonadi data can result in data loss
and is definitely not a recommended procedure for fixing problems with
Akonadi.

Ingo
