Re: [Evolution] Re: Saving embedded images

[Sankar P]

As of now, no one knows, whether the fix is pretty straight-forward.
We will fix this in the 2.5 timeframe and we will commit it to the
branch if it is commitable (doesnt break API/ABI). Once I make a patch,
these things can be discussed during the patch review.

I tested this with 2.2 and it seems to be not working with 2.2 either :(

[Evolution] Evolution / connector going away?

[Paul Hands]

I saw this :-

---
As for the other open-source projects, Mancusi-Ungaro said, "I don't know of any Hula [an open-source e-mail server project] cuts. There have been minimal cuts in Mono [an open-source implementation of Microsoft's .Net], and none of those cuts were in developers." 

As for the Evolution e-mail client, "this is a stable, mature product, so we are redeploying its developers to other more strategic projects."

Evolution may be stable and mature, but connector is neither.  What does this imply for the future of connector?

[Evolution] Evolution-1.2.4 problems under OpenBSD 3.8

[Nikolaus Hiebaum]

Hi,

I am using evolution-1.2.4 from packages on an OpenBSD 3.8 box. Since OpenBSD
3.7 Evolution will no longer work for.

Once I start Evolution, I cannot set the Mail Server and the application
crashes with the follwing error message:

evolution-shell-WARNING **: Error setting owner on component
OAFIID:GNOME_Evolution_Mail_ShellComponent -- CORBA error
Waiting for component to die -- OAFIID:GNOME_Evolution_Calendar_ShellComponent

Does anybody know a solution for this?

[Evolution] Forwarding mail with embedded images

[George Reeke]

Re the problem I reported on Friday forwarding mail
with embedded images (original posting below):
   It works fine in 2.0.2 if one uses "Forward As-->Attached".
It doesn't seem to me that this should be necessary.
If someone knows how this is handled in later versions,
please let me know.
   Thanks,

 My previous Message 

Subject: [Evolution] Forwarding mail with embedded images

We are using Evolution 2.0.2 as distributed with CentOS.
When forwarding an email with embedded image(s), the recipient
does not get the images, only the text.  Is there a setting to
allow the images to be forwarded?  Is this fixed in later
versions of Evolution?  If neither, I will be happy to submit
a bug report.

Re: [Evolution] Evolution / connector going away?

[Jeffrey Stedfast]

Dan Winship, the original author of COnnector, moved to other projects a
few years ago now. Meanwhile it has been under development by
Novell-India, and Evolution has just recently been handed over to them
too.

So, I guess the answer to your question is that Connector is still being
maintained, there are still developers on it, etc.

in later versions of evolution, it is *only* possible to forward
messages as attachments. this is the recommended way acccording to the
RFCs.

Thanks for your response.  I am really needing to change the fonts to
allow printing lines that are 85 characters long.  Is this considered a

[Evolution] Urgent re-post: Ubuntu mailing list problem

[Gordon Burgess-Parker]

I subscribe to a number of mailing lists, one of which is the Ubuntu UK list. I have rules that move these different mails to different folders. On receipt of a mail from the Ubuntu list, the mail is moved to the correct folder but the Received field is a "?". If I move the mail to another folder manually, the Received field reverts to the proper format, ie date and time. If I move the mail back to the Ubuntu List folder the Date and time received stay as normal. this *ONLY* happens with the Ubuntu mailing List and *ONLY* in Evolution. In other words none of the other mailing lists I receive have a problem with the date, and no other mail client has a problem with the Ubuntu mailing list date.

Can someone please suggest what might be going on?

hi,

paul refers to the *rumours* about the latest novell lay-offs.

there are several *comments* (i refuse to call them "reports") stating
that novell will dramatically reduce the amount of developers working on
evolution and connector, even down to 1 or 0 persons.

i guess that nobody here can tell anything explicit about it (yet),
because there are mainly volunteers and developers subscribed to this
list, but not many people of the novell management - so we have to
wait... :-/

never heard of that, please either file a bug at

Hi,

Thanks for the quick reply, but the solution described in
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/evolution-list/2003-August/msg00118.html does
not do the trick for me. It still crashes.

The reason why I use version 1.2.4 is because it's a package under OpenBSD 3.8.
But I will try to compile the current version 2.4 manually.

I hadn't heard this... NotZed was laid off but he was leaving the
project anyway (he been moved to Hula)

Afaik, no one else is leaving evo/connector development.

Also, not to worry - connector is all open sourced now anyway, so even
if I'm wrong, someone could easily take up the reigns and continue with
connector/evo development.

[Evolution] duplicate inbox

[Bob Cataldo]

I have a strange problem with evolution. I connect to an imap server. I
just installed SUSE 10.0 - kde desktop - ( previously I have tested
Novell linux desktop and Xandros ).

When I installed Evolution and set up my preferences, the software
displays 2 duplicate inboxes. If I delete one of them, all my e-mails
are deleted in the second inbox.( good thing I saves a copy locally )

In evolution right now, I show 2 inboxes. one shows 5 unread messages
( I read all the incoming mail ) and the 2nd one shows no new messages
( I have the 1st inbox open ).

When I log into my mail using Thunderbird, everything is normal. The
same thing when using a browser and reading mail as a remote user.

I removed evolution with YAST and then searched and deleted all
evolution files/folders. I restarted my computer and reinstalled
evolution. When I set it up and log on, I get duplicate inboxes.

I am using GAIM which uses the evolution database. Could the problem be
with GAIM?
Any help would be appreciated. I am a Linux newbie, so please keep the
explanations simple.

Thanks
Bob Cataldo

Does the last part of the referred to post above answer this?

"Different settings for fonts are necessary too. Not sure if these issues
 are filed already in bugzilla, but I'm pretty sure they are. Feel free
 to search for them and add comments -- or simply file them, if they
 aren't already."


Regarding long lines: Just a guess, but maybe changing the display font
to a smaller one does this? Printed mails for me do have plenty of space
for long lines without wrapping...

Erik
I had to solve a similar problem, except in my case (since I use
crossover office) I had to get Evolution to open .doc files with
Microsoft Word. 
Here is how I solved the problem. I created a file
~/.local/share/applications/winword2.desktop
with the contents:

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=winword
MimeType=application/msword
Exec='/home/spa/cxoffice/bin/winword'
Type=Application
Terminal=false
NoDisplay=true

If you replace the Exec line with the appropriate executable for Open
Office, this should work to allow Evolution to open .doc files with Open
Office. On my distro, the executable is /usr/bin/oowrite.

I believe the mechanism is pretty general, that is, once you figure out
what the Mime Type is for a file type of interest, you just create
a .desktop file of the above form, and then Evolution knows to associate
that Mime type with the appropriate application. A URL which has a list
of Mime types is http://www.webmaster-toolkit.com/mime-types.shtml

OK, here is a guess.

Assuming you are using POP3. By "Received field" I assume you are
referring to to the Received column in the mail list. That Received date
is being calculated somehow by the last (IIRC) Received: header in the
mail. Don't know how the date to be displayed is calculated exactly.

I do know though, that headers are being unfolded by Evo on copying [1]
(move is copy and delete).

I suspect something like this is going on here. Seems like the algorithm
to extract the date from the Received: headers can't parse the original
header. After copying (and re-folding those headers) it can.


Now how to start debugging this? We need the *raw* mail as retrieved by
Evo in the physical mbox. Please do not copy-n-paste from within Evo.

If that particular mailing list is located in a mail folder named
"ubuntu" in the subfolder "mailing-lists" on your "On This Computer"
node, the physical mbox file I'm after is

  ~/.evolution/mail/local/mailing-lists.sbd/ubuntu

I need the entire headers of the *last* mail in that mbox file. Twice.
First the one, as it is retrieved (which means the "?" is displayed).
Then the one, after copying this mail somewhere else and back again.

Note: The last mail means, the mail that is at the bottom of the mail
list *without* any sorting or ordering. This is the last mail in the
mbox file as well.

Please send both headers (full mail is fine as well) either to me
personally, or to this list. If you are unsure about what to do [2] feel
free to contact me off-list. In this case sending the entire raw mbox
file (with mails just retrieved and displaying the "?") is fine as well.
Compressed, please. :)  I'll do the debugging myself then, to see if
this might be the cause.


Note: There is one thingy, that makes me wonder about this. Filtering
mails is done after the mail is retrieved and stored in your Inbox,
IIRC. Moving the mail due to a filter would be a copy just like the
manual one. But maybe this changed since I last had a look at this...


Please keep in mind, this is just a guess [3]...

[Evolution] Problem initializing inbox

[mcrowe]

I am using an older version of Evolution (1.2.2) on my Redhat 9 Laptop.  It has 
been working well for over 18 months.  However, within the past week or so, I 
can no longer receive any mail.  When Evolution comes up it says:

Scanning for summary information
Fetching summary information for new messages (x %)

When it reaches 100% complete, it immediately starts scanning for summary 
information again, and fetching it, in an infinite loop.

A second symptom is that I cannot cleanly stop Evolution.  I can only stop it 
by using killev from the command line.

I am hoping there is some simple problem here.  Could anyone provide any 
guidance on this?

The insert->Send Options in the composer window, are specific to the

I had seen a similar problem, when evolution was not able to fetch a
particular mail from the server, and thus failing to fetch anything
after it in the queue. [ I had seen this behaviour in 1.4 then ]

I had to manually remove that offending mail [ all by trial and error
and using various mail clients to fetch the mails ]. You could try this
option too.

This bug has been fixed now, it would be nice if its in the upstream
(2.5) so that everybody can use it. Later we can consider it to be a

Re: [Evolution] Lost contact wih my Contacts in Evolution 2.0.4 ;-)

[Sushma Rai]

.evolution/addressbook directory contains db files for contacts.
.evolution/addressbook/local/ folder will contain directories
corresponding to local contacts folders.
.evolution/addressbook/local/system folder contains db file for
your local Personal folder.
.evolution/cache/addressbook directory will contain offline cache files.

To analyze your problem, can you start evolution-data-server and
evolution in different consoles and see if there are any warning/error
log messages are printed on the console?

Re: [Evolution] Sync with Palm Lifedrive

[Brett Johnson]

On Sun, 2005-10-30 at 02:10 -0300, Frederico Madeira wrote:
> You can tellme how you make it ?? what apps you use ?

I'm not sure what your question is.  We're on the evolution mailing
list, so I'm obviously using evolution.  The actual syncing software is
called gpilotd, and there are evolution sync conduits for gpilotd -- but
you shouldn't have to care about that -- everything is integrated into
evolution, gui-wise.

If you need a generic "how do I get syncing working on any distro"
tutorial, I'd suggest this HOWTO:

http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-mini/Handspring-Visor.html

On my specific linux distribution (Ubuntu Breezy), I used gpilot prefs
to tell gpilotd that my palm can be found on the device
"/dev/ttyUSB1" (The gpilot prefs can be found under "Edit/Syncronization
Options..." in evolution 2.4 -- or there's a "PalmOS Devices" gnome
control panel).  Then, I plugged in my lifedrive, and pushed the hotsync
button.

If you're not using the same distro as me, you can figure out which
device to specify by watching the system log while you plug in your
lifedrive and push the hotsync button.  You should get some messages in
the log similar to:

  ... usb 2-1: Handspring Visor / Palm OS converter now attached to ttyUSB1

The *last* of these messages will specify which USB device you'll want
to hot-sync against.

If you don't see any messages like this, that means your kernel isn't
new enough to recognize the device code on the lifedrive, and so the
visor module doesn't recognize your device as a palm device.  See the
HOWTO above for instructions on how to fix that -- or simply try the
latest kernel from your distribution.

Oh, and if you use gnome, you'll want to add the gpilot applet to a
toolbar somewhere, as it gives you a nice GUI indicator of activity
while the sync is happening.

[Evolution] dbus signals

[pan]

Hi guys,

Probably you already know this, but just wanted to make sure.
If I select 'send DBus messages' in preferences, evolution cannot
start (it crashes) when started remotely through ssh.
This is because in that case it cannot connect to the
session bus (it can still connect to the system bus).

I would prefer it would not crash and just not send the signals,
or issue a warning perhaps.

Further, it would be nice if the dbus signals contained a bit more
information, like the particular email's subject and sender address.

Hope it's already fixed, I have:
Evolution version 2.2.3.

[Evolution] Proper Outlook 2003 Migration

[Joshua Dodoc]

Okay so I have a bunch of people using Outlook 2003 and they currently
have their accounts set up, some using POP3 and the office's IMAP
server.

I want to migrate them over to Evolution as I think this is now
possible considering it's a really decent client for Linux and a
simple distribution for newbies such as Ubuntu 5.10 has come out.

My major problem is I've seen export migration tutorials that:

A. Are for Office 97-2000 and if your lucky XP
B. Do not convert all features of Outlook 2003 being, the mail, tasks,
contacts, appointments (calendars) and account settings.

C. Take a long time and claim that I am going to need a big cup of
coffee to do this for myself using "Mozilla" products. Let alone me
trying to convert more than person's email as there are likely to be
those people who need extra help where a FAQ wouldn't be good enough.

My other major concern is its no doubt MS is trying to stop this from
happening by patenting and preventing people from exporting their .pst
format to anything, but alas if it cannot be done easily I cannot
convert others to use Evolution.

Ultimately we are phasing out Microsoft Office all together as there
is absolutely no need for it, OpenOffice is coming along wonderfully
and with Evolution we have now a wonderful e-mail client that replaces
outlook in every way possible (except for the SharePoint gear).

Reply to self, and of use to others overcoming my problem.

I managed to find pretty much the only way to do this properly, and
easily for mass conversion.

Located at http://www.neotek.hu/ there was a way of exporting all
these things ie the "calendar", "contacts", "tasks" and "mails" and a
script for batch processing which is what interested me, as this can
be a time consuming process.

http://www.neotek.hu/en/o2e-0.4.tar.gz this tar.gz has everything
needed in order to convert and i hope is mirrored elsewhere as they
don't have any problems with that as theyre

In the mean time I built up an OSS10 with a new Evo 2.4.0. I waited
untill now to see if my problem is solved by the new installation.

I backed up my .evolution directory and restored it in the new system
before starting Evo 2.4.0. It loaded fine and imported everythin; except
the contacts (which I imported as VCards from the backup). The best
restore I experienced in Evo so far!

But, I have the same problem with the '.. quiting unexpectedly'. It
could only be caused by the data directory .evolution that I restored.
That is why I think I have is some relevant new info. Strangely, I have
a sub-directory in the Inbox that I can not delete. It says that it is
not empty, even if there is nothing in it, except for another
sub-directory I created in the past. This sub-dir was inhereted from the
previous system, which had the same problem. How can I delete this
sub-directory? Could it cause the problem?

[Evolution] Typing 8-bit characters in Evolution's Composer?

[Felix Karpfen]

How is it done?

Every  program that I have used until now provided a
default editor and gave the option to use an external editor.

If Evolution provides a similar option, I (a recent arrival) have
failed to find it.  If the option does not exist, how do I enter 8-bit
characters into the supplied Composer from a US keyboard?  It is an
option that I need relatively rarely, but I would like to be prepared.

[Evolution] Three small questions about Evolution

[Nicolas Chevreux]

Hello,

I am pretty new at using Evolution, and have three small questions
related to this program's ease of use:

1. is there a way to have a default signature automatically added to my
email? I would press "new message", and the signature would already be
there, at the bottom of the message.

2. is it possible to get rid of the HTML formatting toolbar in the
compose window? I write emails in plain text only, and would like to get
rid of this toolbar.

3. when viewing a folder where messages are threaded (usenet, for
example), could all the threads be collapsed by default?

Thank you,

Nicolas

[Evolution] mailsync questions/request

[David Ronis]

Hi

I've been using mailsync-5.2.1 to keep my mail folders on my laptop and
desktop in sync.  It's been working perfectly and plays an important
role in my work.  Unfortunately, I've had to switch to evolution as my
mail client (I used vm under emacs before) and have had trouble keeping
things in sync.  From what I can tell, evolution uses a standard unix
mailbox format and mailsync DOES sync the files properly; the problem is
that various index files under evolution aren't synced which causes
evolution to complain when it's run (e.g., it says it can't save the
mail folder even "after a sync", whatever that means).

I've found that running a program called multisync (from opensync)
somehow restores the indices, even though it DOESN'T sync the mail
folders.

Any idea what/how to rebuild evolution's indices (if indeed that is the
problem); 2) if so, could this be automated into mailsync?  3) Any
chance of you building an opensync mailsync plugin?

Finally, on an different topic, a feature request.  My mail files are
huge and I compress them with bzip2.  Any chance that you could add
compressed read/write support into mailsync?

Thanks in advance.

David

It just worked for me.  I've heard that older versions of
evolution/gpilot do not work however.  I'm running ubuntu breezy
(evolution 2.4.1-0ubuntu7, and gnome-pilot 2.0.13-0ubuntu10).

Note that the backup conduit does *not* work though.  It just hangs
while backing up the calendar database (I suspect due to the changes in
the calendar application I mentioned before).

[Evolution] new contextmenu entry

[Felix Joussein]

Hello List,

Is there any way to modify the context menu?
In particular I'd like to have an entry "Mark as..." when clicking right
on an email folder instead of using the "edit" menu.

Is there a way to realize this?

regards,
Felix Joussein

Re: [Evolution] duplicate inbox

I have a strange problem with evolution. I connect to an imap server. I
just installed SUSE 10.0 - kde desktop - ( previously I have tested
Novell linux desktop and Xandros ).

When I installed Evolution and set up my preferences, the software
displays 2 duplicate inboxes. If I delete one of them, all my e-mails
are deleted in the second inbox.( good thing I saves a copy locally )

In evolution right now, I show 2 inboxes. one shows 5 unread messages
( I read all the incoming mail ) and the 2nd one shows no new messages
( I have the 1st inbox open ).

When I log into my mail using Thunderbird, everything is normal. The
same thing when using a browser and reading mail as a remote user.

I removed evolution with YAST and then searched and deleted all
evolution files/folders. I restarted my computer and reinstalled
evolution. When I set it up and log on, I get duplicate inboxes.

I am using GAIM which uses the evolution database. Could the problem be
with GAIM?
Any help would be appreciated. I am a Linux newbie, so please keep the
explanations simple.

Thanks

[instead of writing me directly - could you instead write to the mailsync
 mailing list?]


I've been using mailsync-5.2.1 to keep my mail folders on my laptop and
desktop in sync.  It's been working perfectly and plays an important
role in my work.  Unfortunately, I've had to switch to evolution as my
mail client (I used vm under emacs before) and have had trouble keeping
things in sync.  From what I can tell, evolution uses a standard unix
mailbox format and mailsync DOES sync the files properly; the problem is
that various index files under evolution aren't synced which causes
evolution to complain when it's run (e.g., it says it can't save the
mail folder even "after a sync", whatever that means).

I've found that running a program called multisync (from opensync)
somehow restores the indices, even though it DOESN'T sync the mail
folders.

Any idea what/how to rebuild evolution's indices (if indeed that is the
problem);


No, I don't.


2) if so, could this be automated into mailsync?

Finally, on an different topic, a feature request.  My mail files are
huge and I compress them with bzip2.  Any chance that you could add
compressed read/write support into mailsync?


I think these two points are best addressed by a script. Just wrap a few 
line around mailsync that:


* call multisync, since that seems to help
* unzip the mailfolder, call mailsync, and rezip it

Greets,

In my suggestion is wellcome: before implementing, do investigate 
thoroughly which options you have for mailbox access. Mailsync is based on 
the c-client library and allthough there seem to be very professional 
people building on top of that library it is beyond me how they find out 
about the semantics details of the API of that library - me personaly I 
had trouble with whatever docu I could find about it. There are other 
libraries for the same task but I haven't ever studied them in depth.

A solution might be to use a local IMAP server and let Evolution connect 
to it. That way you don't need to sync the index files.

The HTML Formatting toolbar is grayed out (disabled) if you have
