Description Yann Droneaud 2012-04-20 11:07:59 UTC
With evolution-3.2.3-2.fc16.src.rpm , exporting emails to a mbox file is broken.

See bugs:
- Junk between messages after saving an mbox file
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=667576
- Exporting as mbox creates enormous files, appears to be somewhat mangled
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=671527

A fix exists in evolution 3.3. A backport of the fix is required to 3.2.
