[Evolution] .p7m attachment freezes Evolution
Hi I received a mail with a .pdf.p7m attached file. Evolution does not show the usual icon of the attached file, and I am not able to download it. I am not able to open any more any mail from the some folder. I tried cseveral time, and sometimes, after some time, Evolution shows the underlying code of the file (I may save it as a .mbox file) your help is welcome cheers mario ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
Re: [Evolution] Evolution-ews and VPN-connection
Hi, I found the problem. It wasn't evolution. A firewall terminated the connection. We have now published the Exchange via HAProxy and the connection problems are solved :-) The switch between VPN and non-VPN still doesn't work but I don't find that dramatic. regards Helge ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

Re: [Evolution] .p7m attachment freezes Evolution
Hi yes, you are perfectly right. It is indeed like that. 'evolution --disable-preview' does not seem to help, and I get the following warnings: (evolution:19884): camel-WARNING **: 23:34:43.409: Truncated UTF-8 buffer (The cause might be missing character encoding information in the message header. Try a different character encoding.) (evolution:23667): evolution-util-WARNING **: 11:31:36.250: Failed to call a DBus Proxy method org.gnome.Evolution.WebExtension::AddCSSRuleIntoStyleSheet: Timeout was reached Is there another workaround? I see I may download the message as a .mbox file. May I recover the attached .pdf.p7m file from there?

It is indeed like that. > 'evolution --disable-preview' does not seem to help Hi, it looks like the preview panel left opened and the message had been loading when you entered the folder. Unless you double-clicked the message to view it in a separate window (this preview panel disabling doesn't work there, it's only for the main window). > Is there another workaround? I gave you 3 options in my previous mail. I cannot think of other at the moment. > I see I may download the message as a .mbox file. > May I recover the attached .pdf.p7m file from there? Being it only about broken Content-Type header you can try to change it to something else. Like: Content-Type: application/octet-stream will avoid parsing it into the preview panel and it'll allow you to save it to a file. When you make the change in the .mbox file, just import the message with File->Import->... and then work with that imported message.

[Evolution] Setting default applications and locations for attachments
When a message is displayed with an attachment two small icons appear to the left of the attachment. Clicking on the one to the right displays a list of actions; the one to the left causes the top action in this list to be taken. * (Applications) How can an item be added to or removed from the list? How can the order of items in the list be changed? * (Locations) When the action is "Save As", a mini file-browser appears. At the left of this browser are two lists of locations. What exactly are the functions of these lists? The function of the top one is clear: it sets the base location for saving. What is the function of the very similar list at the bottom? How can an item be added to or removed from the lists? In my case the default application for a .docx document is Calligra Words; I want it to be Libre Office; and I want to add a location to the list of base locations for saving files, since I often save to a particular location which is not on the current list.

Hi, could you share the message structure, as stored in the .mbox file, please? You can get it with a command like this: $ cat msg.mbox | grep -C3 -i Content-Type Hide anything private with 'x' or such, if the output will contain anything sensitive. It would help to know what exactly you changed in the .mbox file before importing it. Just to know we are on the same page.

I have solved (Applications), which is set by KDE Settings- >Applications->File Associations for the desired extension (in this case .docx ). As you guess, KDE is my platform. For the other question (Locations), I still need an answer. ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

A similar process should probably work with KDE.

Quoting the full message seems too much. Both paragraphs mention an UI for its part would be complex. My reply is addressing that in general (i.e. I agree). There's nothing specific about the UI in the paragraphs, it could be also a reply to the current topic of the thread (i.e. we are talking about an UI for message filters). Thus I just trimmed everything. Studying it, I can think using instead “Getting a good UI for the filter messages window so it supports the advanced features we have been mentionig can be hard, indeed.” may improve it, but little else. What do other people here would consider as the best quote for this case? As a smaill sidenote, I would expect pretty much everyone following long topics like this one to use threaded view when reading topics like this. That could also be a biased opinion, so feel free to correct me.
