Yes, I am using the script. I've tried what you suggested and still no luck. I think the problem is that not all the libraries have been installed properly. Here is the log file: CalDAV Eplugin starting up ... (evolution:5781): evolution-shell-WARNING **: Cannot activate 'OAFIID:GNOME_Evolut

Hi there, First of all, I apologise for the negative comments in my previous post - Paul was absolutely right about them being unhelpful. Evolution is an impressive tool, and it is hardly fair to blame it for struggling to have perfect interaction with a proprietary mail service, especially one pr

Actually, there's still a build bug in evolution which will cause this makefile to fail the first time you run it. I thought it had been fixed, but really the build bug was just masked because I was installing it into an already-populated directory. Attached to this email please find a new makefi

Try unchecking "Check for new mail in all folders" under Preferences->account->Receiving Options. Unchecking means Evo will only check the Inbox. Unfortunately there's currently no way to check just some of your other remote folders (apart from unsubscribing them). poc On Sat, 2007-08-25 at 01:28
