[sylpheed:33193] Re: Slypheed Data Folder in Windows and Linux

[DavidBB]

Apologies for a slow reply, but I wonder if the issue could be that NTFS
support in Linux is sometimes not very good. I wonder if it is worth
checking whether Linux sees any strange ownership permissions on the files.
Can you see them if you browse the file system as root?
