Here's a little script to automate the removal of your current version of Modest. I would recommend using this (or something very similar) every time you upgrade or downgrade Modest, that way you don't inherit problems from previously installed versions.

WARNING: IF YOU USE ANYTHING OTHER THAN IMAP (LIKE POP3) THIS WILL DELETE YOUR E-MAIL!


Paste this into a text file (named something like "modest-remove"), then as root, "chmod +x modest-remove"

Remember, you have to run this script as root.

Code:
apt-get remove modest
apt-get remove libtinymailui-gtk-1.0-0 libtinymailui-1.0-0 libtinymail-gnomevfs-1.0-0 libtinymail-1.0-0 libtinymail-1.0-0 libtinymail-camel-1.0-0
rm -r /home/user/.modest
rm -r /media/mmc1/.modest
rm -r /media/mmc2/.modest
gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/modest
