Hi I'm currently implementing (rather early stages) a multi-mail spool feature in Evolution. Basically I'm modifying the camel mail spool class to allow directories to be given as paths in addition to single mail spool files. This would allow users to access their ~/mail directories by adding a single mail source.
I've got some questions: o Would such a change be welcomed? I mean, would it be likely to be integrated if it were well written? o I'm working on the evolution 1.0.2 sources rather than CVS. This is because I'm doing it at home on a machine with a modem, so using a tarball is easier for me! Have the camel/providers/local/*.[ch] files been modified lately? o Is anyone else thinking of doing something similar? I'd be happy to let them do it :-) o Would it be a better idea to add a separate provider type for a multi mail spool? It's quite messy keeping support for both in the same provider. Are there any docs on the evo object system? I'm normally a C++/Python programmer, and feel vulnerable without the STL(!), and haven't got quite used to evo's object system. It feels like wading in treacle in the fog :-) Thanks Jeremy -- Jeremy Sanders <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www-xray.ast.cam.ac.uk/~jss/ Pembroke College, Cambridge.
