Re: [Evolution-hackers] Offline mode improvements

We already specify the match rules to use from the mailer, so we have to do very little if anything in camel to implement it. Sweet. As a first try, I think we should just go for the sync all the messages in all the specified folders approach though. /* Request the component to sync the specified folder. */ void syncFolder (in string evolution_uri, in string physical_uri, in SyncFolderProgressListener listener); But syncing is done at the store level, not the folder level. Hm. We should change is so it's done at folder level then. At least, that's the way it should look from the shell's side (it doesn't matter how Camel does it). Otherwise we can't unify the process of selecting which folders need to be synced across all components. (See, one thing that we want is also being able to sync calendars, and that has to work independently of the mailer, and independently of whether the rest of the store is synced or not.) void updateProgress (in unsigned percent); Is there a way to use the same progress code or at least interface, as in other cases? Hm, the ::Activity interface assumes that the actions are controlled by the component. In this case, instead, we want the shell to initiate the operation and the component to just report how the operation is progressing. However, a couple of other cases could probably benefit from a pop-up, cancellable progress indicator, so surely it would make sense to include an extra interface/method to the activity client progress bar which just displays differently and can be re-used. I am not sure I understand what you mean here. In what cases would we want this? I don't think this is necessary for the specific case of going offline, although I can see why you would want to share the behavior and code... (But still, see my comment above the difference in the two interfaces.) On the other hand, not all the folders can be synced. So I propose that we add a `canSyncOffline' property to the Evolution::Folder type. This way, each component can specify whether a folder in one of its storage support offline operation or not. [Of course, local folders don't need to be synced so will always have the canSyncOffline bit set to %FALSE.] I dont think this is required. Whether syncing can be performed or not is decided at the store level, why pollute each folder description this info? See, that's the thing. We should change this so that whether the syncing is performed is decided on a per-folder basis, not a per-store basis. Also, if you're going to have the shell keep track of the folders, it'll have to keep track of the rules too ... so how do you specify addressbook offline rules etc etc. I was not considering the rules for now. Although, I think we can have sync rules per folder as well, by using this approach... We would just need a slightly more complex interface. How does this sound? If no-one objects, I am going to start to hack this early next week (after I am done with the CDE work this week). Then we need to make the mailer support it, and I was thinking this could be Michael's task. Michael, what do you think? I will have to review the whole offline code. What i've seen so far looks pretty awful. OK, can you please let us know how much work is needed to make the offline code do all of this? I think we can completely drop the issue of per-folder rules, although of course it would be nice to design this so that can be plugged in easily at a later time. -- Ettore ___ evolution-hackers maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers

[Evolution] Hooks to external program when adding/changing calendar/contacts
Is there any hooks I could use that will call an external program or a plugin whenever I make a change to my Calendar. I would like to keep a web base calendar in sync with Evolution which I use exclusively but for that I need to be able to know when a change is made. If this feature is not implemented, I think it could be useful to a lot of people trying to keep their different program in sync. It could be as simple as calling an external program with as argument a file name whose XML content would be made of 2 tags action and ICS. Then it would be up to the external program to do whatever is needed with it. Any comments? Pascal ___ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution

[Evolution] Some attachments don't show up in evolution.
Hi, I curious as to why some attachments (seems to be the virus ones on the Ximian users list) don't show up in evolution (1.0.3). e.g., on the Ximian users list dated Yesterday 10:15 PM from [EMAIL PROTECTED], subject Re:eager to see you. The message list shows a paper clip indicating an attachment, but the message view shows nothing in the message body (normal display). In view source mode there's clearly at least one encoded attachment. Also, pine and kmail show these attachments and allow me to save them to disk. Mozilla mail (Mozilla 0.9.9 Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:0.9.9) Gecko/20020326) also seems to have problems showing these attachments.

Evolution is doing its best to display the message according to the inconsistent description it's given. There was a problem that messages composed in rich text mode in Outlook and then auto-converted to HTML by Exchange would show up without the attachments in Evolution (because Evolution was displaying what the message *said* to display instead of what it *meant* to be displayed). That's definitely fixed in Evolution 1.2 (and hacked around in Connector 1.0), but I don't remember if the fix made it into Evolution 1.0.

[Evolution] IMAP glitches
I've been meaning to mention this for awhile, and my appologies if this has already been addressed.. I use an IMAP connection to connect to my local machine because maildir format was not originally supported particularly well (detected subfolders merely as root folders with longer names - ie .Lists.Evolution instead of Lists-Evolution).. Anyway, this aside (as I've already mentioned it and hopefully it is/will be fixed), I've noticed a number of weird things with IMAP performance.. Mainly, I leave evolution open on my home machine when I go to work. At work, I ssh in and use pine.. When I get home, evolution will often not have noticed many of the changes I've made with pine, including message deletions, etc. These deleted messages still show up in the message lists in evolution, but when I click on them I get an error (because they're not there anymore). But that's all that happens. Shouldn't evolution be checking for LACK of messages as well as new ones when it does a mailbox update check? And if the message is gone, shouldn't it remove it from the list? This in itself is mildly annoying, but (at least in older versions - hasn't happened in awhile) it would also occasionally segfault after selecting several different nonexistent messages. Anyway, just thought I'd mention it. -Chris ___ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution

[Evolution] Public keys in vCards
I'm wondering if I should open a bug for the following: The vcard format specified by RFC 2426 includes a KEY field for a person's public key. This does not appear to be supported by Evolution. If it were supported there are a number of cool things that could be done with it, or with a key fingerprint field. (I don't know if there's a standard vcard extension for a key fingerprint, but this seems just as useful given online key distribution.) If either the KEY field or a key fingerprint field were supported, it would be extremely useful for establishing trust. With a PDA, someone could beam you their business card on, then you could sync with Evolution. Evolution could promp you have a new key(or signature) and ask if you really got it from the person who claimed to give it to you. --Ben signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
