A question about this, Evolution seems to use the mbox format.
Can I switch to maildir?


Other question, can I use a second programm like mutt and read
my mails? My Computer at work keeps running and running and
sometimes I use the computer at home to login into the company
network and I could read this way my emails.. At the moment I
have no real mailserver here..

Yes, if you take care not to modify the mailboxes, especially when Evo
is running.

I actually use mutt myself and I do this: 
mutt -Rf ~/evolution/local/Inbox/mbox
the -R flag means 'Read-only'

You can look to other folders (but not VFolders) accordingly.

goto file->folders->properties for .

You can also just create a new 'external account' which points to an
existing maildir tree (which probably works better than changing your
inbox to be maildir, etc).

Yep.  With the standard mailbox format, its better not to run them both
at the same time, but with maildir format it should work ok.

[Evolution] 'New Message' email addresses for each folder

2002-07-22 Thread Gene Imes

I have several folders with different email addresses to manage mailing
lists. If I want to reply and click 'Reply' then the 'From:' address is
the address associated with the particular folder. However if I click
'New Message' then the 'From:' address is the address of the logged in
user no matter folder is displayed.

Is there a way to configure evolution so that the 'New Message' 'From:'
address is the address of the folder displayed?

If not then I suggest that this be made a configurable option. Even
though the move now is away from configurability, a great mistake.

Hmm, in my case it's just a question of invoking the appropriate lpr
command from the print dialog. That cause evolution to print ---
although, it seems to require color output, and the format appears to be
US Letter (ugh).

Anyone running 1.1.x and using printing? Can one customize the output
format there?

[Evolution] Bugs with devel snapshot

2002-07-22 Thread Mark Logan

Howdy,

I've been seeing 2 problems for the past few weeks.

First of all I've been getting a freeze several times per day.  I'm
using IMAP and evolution will freeze requiring a killev and restart to
get going again.  

The messaged displayed when hanging is:
Fetching summary information for new messages (100% complete)

It doesn't freeze every time it fetches the summary information, but
when it does freeze, that's where it is.

Second (and fairly minor), dragging and dropping to the shortcut bar
seems to be somewhat broken.  If you drag from the message view directly
on to the destination folder, it works.  If you drag on to the shortcut
bar and then try to move up and down to the destination folder, it won't
let you select the correct folder. 

Let me know what information you want/need to help debug.

Thanks,
Mark

Since these files are system-wide, it's less than desirable to edit them
directly.  Can they be duplicated in a users home directory somewhere
(like X resources), so that they'll override the system defaults?  If
so, I'm happy.

No, it's not anything like the gtk keybinding/menu cruft.  It's a dialog
that lets you associate arbitrary keycodes (including mouse buttons)
with arbitrary commands (not limited to just commands available in the
dropdown menus).

Eh?  I don't have that problem.  Besides, Sylpheed doesn't just depend
on the gtk keybinding hack.  It has it's own seperate way to select
predefined sets of keybindings (the "Set key bindings..." button in the
"Interface" prefs tab).

Sorry, the "M$ does it, so it must be right" argument just doesn't hold
much validity for me.  Some of the most bone-headed GUI abominations
ever conceived have come from Redmond, and I hardly hold them up as a
paragon of interface design.

M$ seems to feel that the way to make a GUI easy to use is to simply
make all advanced functionality extremely difficult to find, or to
remove it altogether.  If that's the direction you guys want to take
Evo, please say so, so I can quit wasting my time with it now.

> one look at bonobo-ui and you will see what I mean when I say

I'm afraid I spouted off about a subject on which I have little
knowledge.  My apologies for suggesting that it wasn't difficult to
implement.  The fact is that I have no idea whether implementing custom
keybindings in bonobo is difficult or not.  What I meant to say was that
keeping track of whether the user is about to trounce a keybinding isn't
all that difficult conceptually.  As to whether bonobo erects a plethora
of obstacles in your way to make it more difficult, I don't have the
expertise to say (so I'll take your word for it).

[Evolution] Gnome-spell with Woody and Ximian's deb repository

2002-07-22 Thread Andy Cedilnik

Hello!

So, woody was released and now we can all do Evolution by default.
Except people who use Ximian's Debian repository. At least for
gnome-spell.

The problem is that aspell depends on libltdl0, which was in
Debian/Potato. It is not in Woody any more, but gnome-spell wants it.

So, Ximian:
Could you fix this, by maybe building aspell with libltdl3? You may need
to include it to be compatible with Potato.

Thank you.

[Evolution] Evolution generating invalid message-ids

2002-07-22 Thread Jörg Roßdeutscher

Hi,

Evolution is generating incorrect Message-IDs. Not only for me, but for
many people on a german Suse-Linux-mailinglist. So maybe it's a
suse-related problem (We all use suse) or it's related to
internationalization (We all are german)


I found an older message in this list, which describes the problem:


> > I have received email with invalid message-id's from a number of
> > Evolution users recently; sample msgid:
> > 
> > 1023735423.7339.8.camel@dirk

The answer was:


[EMAIL PROTECTED]:
> This is a local misconfiguration issue.

No, it isn't.

"hostname --fqdn" says "ratti.gesindel.local".

Note this is a local domain, later rewritten on my server.

Oh, and the hostname in the message above says "dirk", which is a widely
used name here in germany. Well, not only here, but it _might_ mean it's
a problem of german versions.

BTW: 
The trouble is not only, that evolution is generating an incorrect id.  

It should not generate _any_ MessageID.

It should send message without an ID, so sendmail on the server can
generate one with the _real_ domainnamename. Evolution has no chance to
find out that my domain's name is "gesindel.de". It's the server's job.
If one has no server at home, it's the provider's job to generate an id.
A MUA hasn't control about generation really unique IDs.


Anyone can help me?
If you need more informations: just tell me.

the devel versions of Evolution use gethostbyname() to resolve the
results from gethostname() so that you get an FQDN.

keep in mind that message-ids are not guarenteed to be unique no matter

Interface Definition Language. In our particular case, we use OMG CORBA
IDL (Object Management Group Common Object Request Brokering
Architecture) as CORBA is the basis of our IPC (Inter-Process
Communicaton). Does that make things clearer? :-)

Basically they're language-independent header files that define an
interface for talking to the addressbook. They live in /usr/share/idl.

Evolution 1.0.x only supports IMAP with something like sslwrap, it
doesn't support the STARTTLS extension. However, the development
versions do support STARTTLS.

As far as GSSAPI, sure. Eventually we'll support it. I think its the
only SASL mechanism we don't support? :-)
Well, of the more widely used ones anyway...

btw, feel free to take a stab at it if ya want. The CamelSASL API is
really trivial and so adding new mechanims is extremely simple.

If you can, attach to the evolution-mail program, and get a backtrace of
all threads.

i.e.
ps | grep evolution-mail
look for the process id which doesn't have a parent process id of
another evolution mail (usually the smallest number).
gdb evolution-mail pid
where pid is the process id, gdb should automatically 'break' the
process and give you a prompt:
(gdb) thread apply all bt
get the backtrace.

Submit it with a bug report on bugzilla.ximian.com.

Are you using ssl?

Yeah i noticed this yesterday trying to reproduce a bug.  Not sure if
its a 'known' bug though.

Probably related.  My guess is it can't find the imap protocol
provider.  If you run evolution-mail in a terminal separately before you
start evolution, and then start evolution, you should get some debugging
to that effect printed.

So yeah, still sounds like a packaging/build problem :-/

Does that imply that evo must be running to access the address book? Or
can one statically link to an evo library that lets one insert or
extract values?

I suspect the original poster wants to write an import/export utility.
'Twould be nice not to need a running evo to accomplish that.

you have to have part of it running (wombat), yes.

then you risk database corruption. Do yourself a favour and use the
CORBA interfaces to add/extract entries from the addressbook and don't
use libdb3 directly or you *will* be sorry.
