Re: [Evolution] make evolution connection-conscious

2006-10-18 Thread David Prieto






Evolution has been network manager aware since the 2.6 series. 
When your network goes down, does your network manager detect it?



I use network-manager (http://www.gnome.org/projects/NetworkManager/) and yes it detects when the network goes down.

[Evolution] recovering contacts

2006-10-18 Thread Cecile De Cat
Hi

I've deleted my address book (contacts) by accident, and Evolution crashed 
as this was happening. Is it possible at all to recover it? If not, could 
you tell me how to recover a version from my last evolution backup, please?

Thanks a lot in advance

[Evolution] Colors Vanishing with IMAP

2006-10-18 Thread Dominik Slusarczyk
I use filters in Evolution to assign colors to messages in my IMAP
inbox.  I've discovered that when I connect to the IMAP account
with another client---in this case, Apple Mail, but I'd previously
observed this behavior with Horde's IMAP webmail client---Evolution
forgets about the colors.  "Important" flags remain, but colors
get reset entirely.  Does anyone understand why it happens? 
Is there a workaround that will let me make Evolution "remember" about
the color assignments between connections from another client?

Thank you in advance.

I'm waiting for this feature for years now :)
Server-side colors for Evo would be excellent.

[Evolution] Evo 2.8 Win32 beginner

2006-10-18 Thread Jimmy Burt
I am looking for a beginner's list of step by step, or close to it, for setting 
Evo 2.8 up on a clean Win XP system.  I am using Evo 2.8 on my Fedora 6 system, 
and want to be able to use it on my WinXP system, which is still my main system 
while I become more familiar with Linux.

I have used the win32 installer setup from 
http://shellter.sourceforge.net/evolution/ but that has not been updated to 2.8 
yet.  

My objective is to get everything moved to apps that will migrate easily to 
linux, and I have a target date of 12-1-06 to be "Microsoft-free" on my 
desktop.  But I NEED to get Evo 2.8 working first.

Thanks for the help,

JimmyB

[Evolution] Synchronizing desktop and laptop

2006-10-18 Thread Michael Ekstrand
I've been hunting for a while for a good way to keep my address book and
calendar synchronized between my desktop and laptop (both running
Evolution on Debian Testing).  I've tried a variety of things, and
nothing seems to work well yet.  I've looked in to using a groupware
system such as OGo, but that seems quite heavyweight and difficult to
set up (those packages seem to want to have a dedicated system or some
such).  I would try Unison, but the fact that e-d-s is always running
and doesn't seem to be able to pick up changes made to its files outside
itself, combined with the single-file nature of its storage files, seem
to render that option not viable.

I've tried using opensync to sync to a directory of files, synchronize
that with unison, and then opensync again to finish propagating changes.
That didn't seem to copy changes reliably.

I've also tried SyncEvolution and ScheduleWorld, but that continually
wrecked my evolution address book displays as it stripped all evolution
custom data from the vcard's and Evolution was therefore unhappy.

I am trying to look in to OpenSync again now that it's released 0.19,
but I'm not sure what I'll find.  I've also done just a little hacking
on an address book backend that stores entries as separated VCF files in
a directory, a la maildirs, but haven't made a whole lot of progress on
that front.

Any recommendations for a good, easy single-user mechanism for keeping
this data in sync?

Thanks,
Michael

Hi,
In your backup, your adress book is located in your
.evolution/addressbook/local/system/addressbook.db
Just copy-paste the addressbook.db file, and it will work.
