[Evolution] Evolution 2.24.5 && Exchange && Calendar/Invitation acceptance mail stays in Outbox
Hello, When I get an invitation mail from the Exchange Calendar system and click 'Accept' the appointment is inserted into my personal Calendar correctly but the mail confirming the participation stays in the local Outbox; a Send/Receive operation just says: Error while performing operation. Could not send message. This might mean that your account is over quota. which of course is not a quota problem because I can send fine any other e-mail from Evolution; I have had already a look into the source of this mail in Outbox, but it looks normal any idea what could be wrong with Evo or Exchange?

Hi, is it exchange or MAPI you connect to your exchange server? With MAPI I have an issue when the mail contains some UTF-8 character, with the OWA exchange I never saw this.

Since I've to use Evo (before I could use just IMAP and SMTP with fetchmail/mutt/sendmail) I have encountered that problem with the Calendar and I've just not used any Accepts any more, because I was tired of having to delete later the mail from the Outbox. Some day I gave it a try again and was surprised that the mail went out. I even went to my colleague to see and ask him if the mail really arrived as 'invitation accepted', and it arrived. I was surprised and tried again other invitation from this moment, but they all got stuck in Outbox. I will from now on try it again to get a case where the mail goes through to see what could be the difference between a positive and negative case.

I am thinking of changing. Evolution has too many nit-picky things that never seem to get fixed. Re-vacuumed. This time the expunged files disappeared for 24 hours. hmmm As I look at the items, they are all dated middle of May to end of July. On average, for me, there should be 8,000 -10,000 emails trashed in that time period -- not just the same 256 that keep reappearing. I wonder why most are being expunged but a few are not? I am getting fed-up. This evening I am going to dig into the guts of and see if I can manually remove those files. If I destroy something along the way I will just remove Evolution and try either Thunderbird or Claws-mail. Too bad I have been using Evolution for four or five years and I kind of like it in an old ripped T-shirt kind of way. -- Regards Bill Fedora 11, Gnome 2.26.3 Evo.2.26.3, Emacs 22.3.1 ___ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

Since Trash is a virtual folder, the mails that appear in there are in different folders. Try adding a "Location" column to the Trash listing so that you can see where they actually are - that should narrow down your search. Then make sure you have the "Hide Deleted Messages" under "View" disabled and hopefully you should be able to see if they are "real" messages or some quirk of the system. If the messages really exist in some folder somewhere, then it's not Evo causing problems, it's something else that is causing those messages to be marked as deleted and so showing up in the Trash folder. If the messages don't exist, then I don't know, but being able to pinpoint where they are will help the investigation.

It is unlikely that something else caused them to be marked deleted; I did it deliberately during various weekly message housecleaning before doing the Evo File => Backup... > If the messages don't exist, then I don't know, but being able to > pinpoint where they are will help the investigation. 'Location' column in Trash tells that all 256 of the non-expunged mails are in an account called 'On This Computer:/Bill(Personal Account)'. The 'Bill(Personal Account)' is an additional account I have with my IP that I use just to communicate with family and friends. My other accounts are all business and Linux. However, those 256 emails in Trash appear in the 'Bill(Personal Account)' as stroked out deleted messages. There are 43 current emails that I want to keep in the 'Bill(Personal Account)'. The question becomes how do I get rid of the 256 without losing the 43 that I want to keep. -- Regards Bill Fedora 11, Gnome 2.26.3 Evo.2.26.3, Emacs 22.3.1 ___ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
