Thanks all for your replies, obviously I hadn't explained my requirements ;)

I know that all these things are possible, however I have an application
called 'festival' that reads documents for you, or reads from stdin. 
What I had hoped to do was 'read' my email (a brilliant application for
the sight impaired I'm sure you'll all agree).

My problem is that my mail client of choice (Evolution) only prints in
Postscript format which results in festival spewing lots of '%%' and
other punctuation marks.

I've tried piping it through gs but the only real success I've had so
far is cut 'n' paste or save as, neither of which are as easy to
automate as Print.

I realise my requirement is fairly specialist so if it's not to be then
it's not to be. 

BTW I've just achieved exactly this requirement in 30 seconds using
Pine.

Thanks anyway,

Jim

Since you can choose the program to print with (lpr is just a default)
you can write a small script that pipes the ps through ps2ascii.

 it's not to be.

You can aswell do this with evolution using a print script...

However, I would stay with text-gui based applications if the gui is
invisible for the blind anyway.

I guess a CamelProvider could be written which connects to Jabber/etc.

Re: [Evolution] Snooping on a snoop ...

2002-04-08 Thread Dan Winship

 When I considered this, I ssh'ed into my machine, did a 'killev;
 oaf-slay'

Grumble. One of my pet peeves. oaf-slay does everything killev does 
and more. So running killev; oaf-slay is *always* redundant. If you're 
going to oaf-slay, don't bother to killev too.

  and went looking in the evolution cache of the folder in
 question.  Doing an 'ls -lt | less' I see lots of files accessed at the
 time in question, but only a few messages where the full headers were
 pulled.  My question is, how do I determine which messages were read
 based off the contents of the cache?

By only a few messages where the full headers were pulled, I assume 
you mean there are only a few #.HEADERS files. But that's expected. 
Cyrus supports UIDPLUS, meaning Evo can reliably cache the complete 
message body when it appends the message, and if it has the complete 
message in the cache, it won't bother to cache the headers separately.

If every file that either has no extension or has a .HEADERS extension 
was accessed, then that means evo had to regenerate the summary, and in 
that case you're probably not going to be able to get any further info. 
Otherwise, it seems to me that any file whose access time is in the 
right range was probably looked at.

[Evolution] Connector Exchange Version

2002-04-08 Thread David G. Simmons


Well, I was SOOO happy that I was going to be able to ditch WinBlows (A 
*requirement* at my job) for Evolution, using the new Connector. I 
checked with my SysAdmin, and he told me we were running Exchange 2000, 
so I went out and purchased a license for the Connector. I got it 
installed, and could not connect to the Exchange Server. Dang. Upon 
further pressing my SA, it turns out that, well, we're not REALLY 
running EX2000, but 5.5. Am I totally screwed here? Do I have a 
Connector license I cannot use? Am I doomed to a life of misery and 
Windows Error messages?

Thanks!

Isn't the connector just interpreting the Exchange webpage? And thusly,

No, it does not do anything with any Exchange (Outlook Web Access?) web

Yes, unfortunately Connector does not work with Exchange 5.5.

We still hope to have a 5.5 Connector out later this year. Until then,
you can get a refund, although I don't know exactly how you'd do that.
Probably the email the web store sent to confirm your purchase has
useful info.

[Evolution] Feature requests: modularity imap caching...

2002-04-08 Thread Frederic Vanneste

First of all, kudos to the whole Ximian team for
putting together this IMO excellent product.
After some fiddling it became my client of choice
and I haven't had any issues in months except
for some 'closing' problems (Waiting for component
to die -- ...) from time to time.

First proposal/request:
I like the essential idea behind the workgroup/pim
features, but I'd rather have a choice. Let me 
explain... I use evolution mainly because of its
_great_ imap-handling, it's the first (gui) mua
that really does everything I need and does it
_right_! But I only use the calendar-thingy
on one system, and I *know* there are a lot of
people that rarely of never use the calendar/tasks
features. The summary feature is a nice addition,
but it's a not really something everyone *needs*, right?
Don't get me wrong, I really like those features, on 
my main system they are all enabled, but what I mean
is that these should be 'options/plugins/whatever'.
I managed to get evolution run as an imap-client only,
by renaming the oaf files, so they're not loaded on 
startup, but it would be really nice if there was a
more 'clean' way of doing that. Because of the
nice modularity in the code of evolution, I 'guess'
that would not be such a major obstacle to overcome
(correct me if I'm wrong here, I'm not much of
a programmer...).

Second, it would be really nice if you get more
control over the imap caching. I work in mechanical
engineering and get a lot of large files in my
mailbox. Header caching is a major feature, but
I hate it that I have to manually delete all those
mime-files from the cache... You must understand that
if you read your mail on different systems,
all those files (of sometimes a couple megs each)  get 
cached in all those places, taking a couple of 100Megs on
each system after a couple of weeks. 
It would really be nice if there was an option to purge
the mime-cache on exit/command/...

ThanX,

Frederic

The cvs tree has an IM path- presumably where premliminary work is
being done on intergrating a bonobo-based instant message client.

http://lists.ximian.com/archives/public/evolution-hackers/2002-April/004348.html

It's a CVS branch, branched off somewhere in the 0.99's, IIRC, so it's
pretty out of date.  You can check it out by doing something along the
lines of:

cvs -d evolution-im -r evolution-im evolution

[Evolution] Can the Sharp Zaurus sync with evo?

I took a look at the new Sharp Zaurus today, it's pretty nice. Anyone
know if it's date book/todo/contacts format is compatible with
evolution? The Zaurus uses the network for syncing, I'm guessing you
could even set up rsync to synchronize the files, but I want to know if
anyone has actually tried this yet.
