[Evolution] Subject: forward email by filter rule failed

[@web.de]

Dear Milan,

I cound not install the last stable version 3.34.x, because some
dependencies are not fulfilled in my linux distribution (Linux Mint
Mate 19.3).

I made your suggested setting and another via dconf editor:

org.gnome.evolution.mail flush-outbox true
org.gnome.evolution.mail composer-delay-outbox-flush 0

However, the message has not been sent. After restarting evolution I've
got the following error (which is the same I get by right-click the
Outbox folder and pick Flush Outbox from the context menu):

[Original German Version]:
Fehler bei >>Nachricht wird verschickt<<
MAIL FROM-Befehl gescheitert: incorrect authentication data.

[English Version, translated by myself]:
error while >>sending message<<
MAIL FROM-command failed: incorrect authentication data.

This is strange, because if i reopen the massage and click 'sent'
everything is ok, which mean that the message has bee sent without
asking for a password and moved to the sent folder of the related
account.

Hi,
do not run it as root, that process is run by the user, in the user
session. Check:

  $ ps ax | grep evolution

again, run that as a regular user, the one whom logged into the GUI, to
see which other/all processes are involved.
Bye,

Right, it's tricky to do it on older distributions. Maybe pick a
distribution, which provides latest stable version? Not always doable,
I know. Another option is to ask the distribution maintainer(s) of the
package(s) (evolution-data-server in this case), to find the upstream
fix and backport it.

I'm afraid I cannot do much, as long as it works properly on latest
stable version (limited manpower, I'm sorry). Maybe verify what
accounts you've configured (Edit->Preferences->Mail Accounts) and if
there are any disabled, misconfigured (the same email address, but
different SMTP settings) or such. It can be that when you open the
message in a composer it corrects the email address to the enabled
account.

You can also run evolution as this:

   $ CAMEL_DEBUG=smtp evolution

to see what server is used and what FROM address is passed to it. I
hope your version shows it too.

Bye,
Milan

Sorry for that, as I created my first request, I was not member of the
lists. Thus I did not get your response into my mailbox. Instead I read
on internet. I tried to force my second request into the right topic by
setting the subject to "[Evolution] Subject:  forward email by filter
rule failed", but it seems to be that "Re: [Evolution]
Subject:  forward email by filter rule failed" would have been the
right one. Now I am a member and this should not happen again.

Hi,
a little off-topic below.

Ah, I see. No problem then. I default to reply to list with list
messages, unless asked otherwise.

Threading doesn't work on Subject (or, better said, it's only a
fallback, which can be turned off by a user), it works on certain
headers in the message (specifically In-Reply-To and References
headers), which are set/inherited when replying to the message. As you
did not have the message it could not set/inherit them properly.

>  Now I am a member and this should not happen again.

Correct, this one is properly threaded.

Thanks and bye,
Milan

[Evolution] Query about editing quoted text in Plain Text mode

[Milan Crha via evolution-list]

Hello,
for the background: WebKitGTK+ deprecated C DOM API few releases back,
thus I'm slowly changing the code to use JavaScript Core API instead.
The preview panel is done for the upcoming 3.36.0 and I'm slowly
fighting with the editor part. There will be some functionality dropped
and some (I hope good) added. I'd like to depend on WebKitGTK+'s
functionality as much as possible, which has its pros and cons.

My current query is:

Is editing of quoted text in the Plain Text mode used?
What do you expect from it?

Tomas Popela (continued the work started by Dan Vratil) did a great job
in preserving the behavior as close as possible to what users were used
to from times of GtkHTML, where editing text in quotation kept the
quote character ('>') at the beginning of the line when the paragraph
text had been changing. That's fairly complex code to maintain, thus
I'm thinking of dropping it, instead of rewriting it in JavaScript.
Without it the quote characters would be there, but they will be like
any other text, possible to edit/remove and so on. They would be
switched to 'blockquote' when changing format to HTML and back to quote
character on change to Plain Text mode.

I checked some other GUI editors what they do with quoted text in the
Plain Text mode and this is what I found:

 * Thunderbird (68.4.1) - does nothing when editing it, only
   re-wrapping function can fix/add quote character;
 * SeaMonkey (2.49.5) - works pretty much the same as Thunderbird;
 * KMail (5.11.3) - does nothing when editing; has in Edit menu
   "Add/Remove Quote Character";
 * Claws Mail (3.17.4) - keeps quoted text quoted while typing new text
   (when long lines are wrapped), but not when deleting quoted text.

That is, none of the above work any similarly as the current Evolution
in this regard.

I do edit quoted text myself, mostly to correct wrapping and to split
the quoted text into parts, under which I write my comments. While I'm
used to manually wrap the text (using Delete/Backspace and Enter keys),
it doesn't scale for long text. Having the Format->Wrap Lines extended
to preserve quote character appropriately on re-wrap, I'd probably get
use to it sooner or later. I sometimes create my own quoted part just
by adding the quote character at the beginning of the line.

I guess dropping "quote paragraph lines while typing in Plain Text
mode" functionality would not cause any significant harm long term
(habit factor considered), especially when its drop would simplify the
code and other functions a lot (including undo/redo), but I thought
I'll ask for an opinion here too.

Bye,
Milan

yes, I use it always, because I only use plain text whenever possible.

Nothing special - correct line breaks perhaps.

Uh, that would be a real bad loss 8-<

I could live with it, but it would make things much less comfortable.

You shouldn't use bad examples ;)

That is one of the big advantages of Evolution.

As I said, one can get used to it - but it is a loss!

Yes, but not complex editing.

> What do you expect from it?

I want to wrap long lines and for them to remain quoted when I do so.
(I usually change the paragraph setting from "Preformatted" to "Normal"
to do that.)

Splitting quoted paragraphs (by pressing ) to insert comments
should result in a non-quoted gap and the two halves of the paragraph
remaining quoted.

Basically I don't do much with quoted text other than deleting
irrelevant bits and inserting gaps.  But it's very useful that the
quote indicators don't form part of the text when you are deleting
things - it minimises considerably the risk of removing them when
deleting only the first bit of the line. I must admit I just assumed
that most mail editors also did this - evidently not!

It seems to me it tried to generate local cache too early, when not
connected to the server yet. It will retry again on refresh or some
such.

If the search works, you can see also the content what the server
returned, aka the found contacts. Does it claim any error? You can also
see the query itself. I would not use the "Any field contains", rather
use "Name contains" or "Email begins with", which are similar (but not
the same) as searching for the contact in the New Mail Message composer
(or search in the composer, if you've the book enable for the
auto-completion).

Hi Milan,

The search finds nothing. the debug log just shows:

e_book_backend_ldap_search ...
e_book_backend_ldap_search ...
e_book_backend_ldap_search ...
e_book_backend_ldap_search ...

The auto complete doesn't find anything from that ldap server. It only find 
contacts from the EWS account that is also part of evolution. I have 3 accounts 
on evolution. 1 EWS account and 2 accounts on zimbra. The zimbra ldap is not 
showing any contacts in evolution, but works in Thunderbird. I do not want to 
use that.

Yes, I utilize plain text as much as possible - but like Pete Biggs,
nothing complex

additionally

I use gvim 100% of the time as my external editor, so I think that I'm
already working in an environment that matches:

so in my case, I don't think I would notice much change.

Hi,
the cache can be incomplete, better to use UI functions, from my point
of view.

I just tried it, created an On This Computer/was-ews folder, then I
right-clicked EWS/Inbox folder and picked Copy to Folder..., where I
chose the On This Computer/was-ews folder (in fact, I created the
folder in the Copy To Folder dialog). Then the code downloaded all the 
messages in the Inbox and in its subfolders, thus the structure is
preserved. It can be a pita when you've many top-level folders, but
otherwise it's one of the simplest methods I can think of.
Bye,
Milan

Hi,
try to turn off "Copy book content locally for offline operation" (and
only then stop evolution and restart the address book factory process).

I see it has some influence on the behavior. In this case, if the book
is not offline (which it should not), it prefers to use the local cache
(because it's marked for offline use), even when it's empty/incomplete.
When you've that option off, the log will continue with a new print:

searching server using filter: XXX (expecting max NNN results)

and eventually some more after it. You can also try to delete

   ~/.cache/evolution/addressbook//

to force start from scratch with the local cache. You can delete the 

   ~/.cache/evolution/addressbook/

to force start from scratch for all remote address books you've
configured (like those for evolution-ews). Such deletion requires
restart of the addressbook factory process (because touching private
application files).

Hi Milan,

Hi Milan,

Thank you very much. It is now working. Nor sure which one worked but I deleted 
the .cache files and also unchecked the offline mode and it works.

Again, Thank you for your time on this issue.

Please try to follow preferred practice when replying to mails on this

 * Don't top-post
 * Trim your quoted material to what you are actually commenting on
 * Avoid HTML

[Evolution] What exactly does "preformatted" do?

[George N. Reeke]

Can someone tell me (or give a link to) exactly what "preformatted"
in the composer dropdown does when composing new mail?  Documentation
seems to assume it is obvious; from the name it might have to do with
how inserted existing text is handled; googling tells me it turns off
col 72 line breaks--good, sometimes I want that.  Before blindly using
it and making a fool of myself, I would just like to know all the
things it does.
Thanks,
George Reeke

I have lots of folders, but in a very deep structure. In the top level
there are only about 10 folders. So I'll follow your suggestion. Thx

Re: [Evolution] What exactly does "preformatted" do?

"Preformatted" probably because it's useful when using it to paste code,
log files etc., IOW when word wrapping renders the pasted text more or
less unreadable.

Performatted:

Andre,
I provided information in my e-mail but as you can see the problem was
evident i.e. no text in the message!
I am using Evolution 3.26.3 with the SuSE 15.1 distribution recently
loaded onto a new computer. I have not had this issue before using
Evolution with previous SuSE distributions, Not sure what the issue is.
It works occasionally, but not often.

PPS: I made a test with performatted and normal HTML.
 At least when editing in performatted mode, a HTML line becomes
 endless, IOW if the end of the editor window is reached, then
 horizontal scrolling starts, while in normal mode wrapping is done
 at the end of the editor window.

I suffered from this bug some time ago, too. It was noticeable already
before sending, since the plain text font when editing was a different
font, not the expected font, before the message body got lost when
sending it. It's fixed on Arch Linux since a while ago. I don't
remember when it was fixed.

All I could see was an empty HTML message. Perhaps if you posted in
plaintext, as this list prefers, it would have been visible.

3.26 is really old. The current version is 3.24, so that's about a 4
year difference. Try to get a more up to date version if possible.

Re: [Evolution] Query about editing quoted text in Plain Text mode

[theapple...@differentmail.com]

Hello Milan!

Thanks for asking!

I usually use the Inline (Outlook style) as reply style to avoid
multiple >> quote character when there is a long thread with many
succeeding emails. I also prefer plain text emails.

To preserve the email thread I copy the text of the previous email and
insert it above the headers of the original email with ctrl-shift-V to
get the quote character in front of the text and split the text into
paragraphs to respond separately as the others did in response to your
email and you mentioned:
> I do edit quoted text myself, mostly to correct wrapping and to split
> the quoted text into parts, under which I write my comments. 

Thanks again for continuously working on Evolution, much appreciated!

Cheers, Dan
