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?
