[Evolution] How to add an addressbook with a LDAP server
Hi, i want to add my addressbook that's on a LDAP server. It does work with thunderbird so i am clearly doing something wrong in Evolution. Besides the server name ldap.fusemail.net i must fill in a Base/Search DN zo i have chosen for authentication for Using distinguished name (DN) and in the following line the contents that they have given to me. When i search an address i'll get the following message : This either means you have entered a incorrect URL or the LDAP server isn.t reachable. Any idea's what i am doing wrong?

This is fixed now. http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=317897 Updating your eds source would help to get rid of this.

I guess it is there from 2.2 itself. I dont understand what you mean by "ALL REFERENCES TO THEM, AND THEM AS WELL" Can you elaborate this? If you want to edit the mails that you have already sent with the signature, it is not possible, since mails are immutable. -- Sankar P ___ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

I have 2.3.7, 2.4.0, 2.4.1 and a cvs-head and have been switching between them. In the process I seem to have got my account completely messed up. I think it is to do with the ";" which seems to be added whenever I try to look at a calender now. I created a new user account, configured evo 2.4.1, and it works pretty well (Though it failed to invite a conference room to a meeting for me - just opened a box saying 'sending invite failed') So I would like to 'clean out' my normal account and start again. How do I do this, including gconf, please? Doing these would help: ~$ rm -rf .evolution Remove the key /apps/evolution in gconf-editor or ~$ rm -rf .gconf/apps/evolution and restart gconfd. Remember you will *lose* all your account (not just exchange account) data. Evolution will start off by asking for new account. Thanks, Arunprakash. ___ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list Thanks Notzed and Arunprakash, In this case I have copied the personal data to the dummy account, and can copy it back again, so nothing will be lost. This is clearly a tricky area, and I do appreciate all your work - even if sometime chasing the latest version causes a problem, Bill ___ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
Re: [Evolution] Inbox doesn't automatically update....
Even if I stay in the Inbox always, I don't see *new* emails unless I quickly leave the Inbox and enter it again. The visual display of Inbox is not *refreshed* automatically unless I leave and enter Inbox again.
