[Evolution] use of contacts in Evolution 1.2.2-4
Hi - I am new to Evolution, running the version of that came on the Red Hat 9 CD's. All seems to work except using contacts for email addresses. As long as I type the address myself things work. If I attempt to enter a nickname in the address field the program does seem to pull the email address out of the contacts list, but then on attempting to send it the program generates an error: Error while performing operation RCPT to failed: Syntax error in parameters or arguments At first I thought perhaps something had failed on importing the addresses, but the same thing happens if I manually create a contact and attempt to use the address. When I look at the result in the out box the email address seems to be properly placed, (it is underlined - I don't know if this is significant). I haven't found anything about this in the help files. Any suggestions would be appreciated. ___ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
[Evolution] adding contacts from a text file list
Hi I'd like to do an email shot and have the emails in a text file ie one per line. I don't want to add the contacts to a list as instructed... ie File > New > Contact List. Specify email in the single line field click add ie one at a time. Is there some way I can cut and paste the list into a new contact list in Evolution? Any help much appreciated. ___ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
[Evolution] automatically genereted contacts
hi everyone,at lest in the release 2.4.6 you can tell evolution to automatically add a contact to your address book at any replay you perform. (options--> mail preferences-->>. )question: is it possible to tell evolution to pick up *every address* containd in the incoming mail and to put it in the contacts file? My problem is that after restored my system, i have succesfully imported the old mbox to the new installation, but i have lost my contacts. Is there a smarter way other than tape my self everything?thanks!jo Lèche-vitrine ou lèche-écran ? Yahoo!

[Evolution] RE : Re: automatically genereted contacts
>hi jo,hallo Andre>i always wonder why people ask a question (auto import all >email>addresses) totally unrelated to their problem (restoring their >address>books)... :-) well what shall I sayunder *precises* conditions, asking random questions could be a very renewing practice, did'nt you know? too complicated to explain, Andre. I have backed up my /home (befor a format and a new installation of ubuntu 6.06) but thats not the point, the contacts.db that is in it is ridicolously inconsistent in relations to the size of my inbox (it contains not more than 20 addresses while there are more than 8000 incoming msgs in the inbox, from i guess, 100/150 persons with which i would like to be in contact).That's why i was asking a way to extract the addresses: I do not have a contacts file who is worthy to restore.so, if there is a way... I will be vry happy tchuess, jo Lèche-vitrine ou lèche-écran ? Yahoo! Magasinage.___ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

[Evolution] comparison to Thunderbird
Dear All I am a frustrated Thunderbird (Kubuntu) user who cannot get full access to the printing options. I have tried a fix that was assertive and had success for others but did not work for me. I have been trying for over a year. I have used other distros and always had the same problem. Firefox gives me full access to all the printing options and always has. So now I have had enough and wish to move away from Thunderbird. I have looked at KMail and Evolution. Both give me full access to the printing options, and Evolution is the better inteface. But alas, alack I cannot see how to make separate inboxes etc for each account. I have five e-mail accounts and wish that they retain their separate inbox, drafts, Trash etc. In my Windows days I used Outlook Express but had to make separate profiles and move between them to administer different e-mail accounts. Of course there were no printing issues either. When I discovered Thunderbird in Windows I was a very happy man. It is the transition to Linux that is held up by these anomalies. Imagine in this sophisticated Linux era not being able to chose which quality of print you wish to do. Silly really.
