[Evolution] Exchange and GAL port
We're moving to Exchange (sigh). Everything is working except the GAL always times out (after a long delay). Some packet sniffing showed evolution was sending to port 3268 on the global catalog server but no replies ever came back. The reply from the Exchange admins was: > From what we understand evolution uses the webfrontend to do all it's > communication to all the traffic should be over port 80. I believe Evolution does do some of it's communication over webdav but judging by the packet sniffing results, it's trying to connect to the global catalog server on port 3268 not port 80. I did try appending :80 to the server address but that didn't work. Which port on the catalog server should Evolution be connecting to? Is there any way to change the port (apart from modifying the source)? Would changing the port help in any case?

I've been using Evolution for a long time also and found it very stable until we moved to Exchange. Not only does Evolution crash more often it generates a bug report on just about every exit (and has a acquired a few other annoying habits like multiple password prompts). The Exchange connector also crashes sometimes so although Evolution is still running it can't connect to the Exchange server. A few linux users here have moved from Evolution to thunderbird after being migrated to Exchange (which is ironic when Evolution is the only linux client our Exchange service officially support). Maybe things will improve when Evolution can do MAPI. -- Ian ___ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

That's because the Trash folder is a virtual folder not a real folder. When you delete a message it's not removed, it's just marked as deleted and not shown by default. The Trash virtual folder shows all the messages which have been marked as deleted. Messages aren't actually deleted until you Expunge the Trash (which removes all deleted messages) or Expunge in a folder which removes all deleted messages in that folder. You can configure evolution to show messages marked for deletion by unchecking "Hide Deleted Messages" in the View menu. You can configure evolution to Empty Trash folders automatically at a set interval in Edit/Preferences/Mail Preferences/General/Delete Mail. What you can't do (as far as I know) is have deleted or expunged mail moved to a real (not virtual) Trash folder (which would be a nice option to have). -- Ian ___ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

At that time it followed the Exchange model: deleted messages were moved to the "Deleted Items" folder. I haven't been able to get 2.22.3.1 to work with our Exchange server except as an imap client so I can't say if that's still the case. -- Ian ___ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

[Evolution] Alert when sending to unqualified addresses.
Just upgraded to 2.32.1 and so far everything is going well except that any message to to an unqualified address gets an alert: Are you sure you want to send a message with invalid address? The following recipient was not recognized as a valid mail address: Under Composer Preferences/General/Alerts there are a number of useful alerts that can be turned on or off but not this one. Is there a way to disable this alert. I can click on Send to have the mail delivered but I do this a lot and I'd rather not have the alert pop up every time. Another option, I guess, would be to set a default address to be added automatically to unqualified addresses but I can't see a way to configure that either.

In this case it'll be easier to ignore the alert by clicking Send than to add all internal users to the contacts.

I get the same problem on CentOS 7 with Evolution 3.8.5. Notices sent from environment monitoring with 3 text attachments cause evolution to freeze for ~ 4 minutes. I tried running with debugging turned on and with strace but didn't get any more clues.

You can upgrade Ubuntu without reconfiguring your system: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/upgrade In this case though because 10.04.4 is so old, a fresh install would probably be easier (and safer) if you want to go to the latest (16.04).

[Evolution] Calendar and GAL not working with exchange 2010
Hi With Evolution 3.4.3 mapi connection to Exchange 2010, the Exchange Calendar doesn't show and lookups in the Global address list fail. Accessing the calendar gets this error after a long delay: Error loading calendar Timeout was reached Accessing the address book gets this error after a delay: Unable to open address book This address book cannot be opened. This either means that an incorrect URI was entered, or the server is unreachable. A couple of other things: firewall is turned off and selinux disabled This is a fresh install of Fedora 17 and a new user account so no legacy from older versions. This was all working well last week with Evolution 3.0.3 on Fedora 15. Are there any known problems connecting 3.4.3 to Exchange 2010?

[Evolution] EWS Cannot resolve hostname
Hi I've configured Evolution to connect to our exchange server with EWS. Versions are: evolution 3.10.4-0ubuntu1 evolution-ews 3.10.2-0ubuntu2 Everything went smoothly with the configuration - the correct URL was found - but when I try to authenticate I get this debugging output: < HTTP/1.1 2 Cannot resolve hostname (exchange.our.domain) < Soup-Debug-Timestamp: 1424816438 < Soup-Debug: ESoapMessage 0 (0x7fccc800d140) /etc/resolv.conf has the correct name servers listed and the hostname resolves with host, nslookup or dig. Adding the exchange servers address to /etc/hosts made no difference. Removing the entry 'mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return]' from /etc/nsswitch.conf also made no difference. The same settings are working fine on Centos 7 with evolution 3.8.5. Any idea why EWS can't resolve the server hostname on Ubuntu 14.04?
