[Evolution] printing question
This may be OT, but I figured it was worth a shot. When printing from Evolution the bottom margin seems to be set to aggressively - causing the last line of text on a page to be cut off horizontally. I've looked everywhere I can think of and can't find a place to set that particular parameter. Is this something that a gnome-print client (like Evo) does - or is it some option secreted away in gnome-print somewhere? Any suggestions appreciated.

[Evolution] dumb question about mail delivery types (take 2)
I sent this several days ago and didn't get a response - so since I haven't figured it out on my own, I figured I'd send it again, in the hopes that someone might throw me a bone... So - currently I use fetchmail and procmail to fetch my mail from several POP servers and deliver directly to ~/evolution/local/Inbox/mbox - works great - and allows me to use both evo and mutt to read my mail without too many hoops to jump through. The only downsides are (a) to see new messages in Evo I have to expunge my inbox (i.e. evo can't autocheck every n minutes) and (b) I can't use filters. I spent a bit of time this morning experimenting with the various mail delivery options in Evo in an effort to get filters working - and I'm now pretty confused. There are 6 options - 4 if you exclude POP and IMAP: Standard Unix mbox spools Maildir-format mail directories Local Delivery None I'm unclear on a few things: 1. what's the difference between Standard Unix mbox spools and local delivery? The former says it's for reading and storing local mail in standard mbox spool files and the latter says for retrieving local mail from standard mbox formatted spools. Does that mean that standard unix mbox spools doesn't move mail between the selected spool and your inbox? 2. maildir-format mail directories says it's for storing local mail in maildir directories - does that mean it does or doesn't move things from the folder specified into your inbox? 3. Why does the apply filters to messages in INBOX option vanish from Receiving Options when you select local delivery? I tried a couple things without success: 1. changing procmail to deliver to /var/spool/mail/dberger in mbox format and changing one of my evo accounts to local delivery. I sent (and received) a test message to myself and tried to get evo to snatch it via Send/Receive - the message was never found. 2. changing procmail to deliver to ~/Mail/INBOX in Maildir format and selecting maildir format directories - with the directory pointed at ~/Mail/Inbox. Again, send and receive a test message - but evo never picked it up and moved it to my inbox when I did Send/Receive.

Re: [Evolution] Evolution, procmail, and mutt
I don't have step by step instructions, but here's what I can tell you. I have fetchmail grabbing and procmail processing my incoming mail. My .procmailrc file points to my inbox (either ~/Mail/Inbox/ or ~/evolution/local/Inbox/mbox/ - see below). I've had no problems with this configuration - but you do have to expunge your inbox when in Evo to see newly arrived messages. As far as evo and mutt sharing mail files, I've done this two ways. 1. the real mail files live in ~/Mail and I've manually setup symlinks in ~/evolution/local/.../mbox. This only works with maildir or mh style folders - reason being that when evo expunges mbox files it re-writes the file, thus breaking the symlink. Assuming you're using maildir or mh for all your folders - this makes things work nicely in mutt, but each new folder must be added by hand in evo. 2. the real mail files live in ~/evolution/local/.../mbox. This works with mbox files. My .muttrc specifies ~/evolution/local/Inbox/mbox as my spool and ~/evolution/local/Sent/mbox as record. It works, but navigating folders in mutt is a bit of a pain. Thankfully evo has gotten to the point where I mostly don't use mutt when I'm on console (I am now, as Evo still doesn't manage mail list digests terribly well). Hope that helps.

Unable to open vfolders or Trash. If I try, evo hangs - the mouse pointer continues to move, but I can't click anything outside the evo window (and clicks inside the window don't invoke any action). If I switch tasks with Alt-Tab, I can get to a shell and kill-ev. My gut (and it's purely a wild-ass guess) is that it has something to do with drag-n-drop code, based on the way the mouse is responding. Opening a folder should not invoke the DnD code? By the way, VFolders and Trash folders have to open other folders in order to display, so it may just be that it's taking a while to open and not be a crash/hang/whatever. This is especially the case if you have a lot of mail and/or a lot of folders. So I tried the CAMEL_VERBOSE_DEBUG=1 trick to help figure this out - and it didn't shed any light on the subject. I then tried gdb'ing each thread - here's what I see - sorry about the length.. This is the state the threads are in when evo hangs - and I'll I need to do is click on a vfolder.

(BTW: my initial message never arrived at the list - but this follow-up includes that original missed post). So I did a little more experimentation today - and this problem is almost certainly in the maildir code somewhere. First, I opened my inbox (in maildir format) and attempted to access a newly created vFolder. I observed the symptoms described below. I changed to a tty and issued a killev. I re-ran evolution, and using the Folder Properties item on the menu (by the way - there are two - is that intentional?) I converted (using evo) my mailbox to mh format. I was then able to access the vFolder without trouble. I ran the same test, converting the mh mailbox to mbox, again the vFolder worked just fine. I then converted (again, using evo) the mbox back to mh, and once again, vFolders lock up evolution. Hope this turns a lightbulb on for someone...

So, a few that have been hanging around for quite some time: 1. Unable to delete PGP signed/encrypted messages from maildir folders. The messages survive an expunge. They can be deleted (with no trouble) by other mailers. 2. Unable to open vfolders or Trash.

[Evolution] evolution slightly misses the boat...
It took me a while to realize it - I was using daily snapshots and growing fat and happy, but then I realized Evo could no longer verify the PGP signatures generated by a friends (windows based) mailer. That's odd. I thought. Then I remembered - his mailer (using the latest windows-based PGP plugin) is generating in-line PGP signatures - which evo doesn't want to look for (no argument from me - mutt doesn't either - it's silly and expensive, scanning the message body for the pgp block, rather than just looking for the mime header). I have a procmail recipe that does the conversion during fetchmail process. 'Course since I've been using evo's built in POP support, procmail doesn't get run... So now I have to ask if there's a way to have the send/receive button invoke a handler process on the mail before delivery - or something equally ugly. Any suggestions? It would, of course, be nice if everyone else in the world did the right thing - but since that's not likely to happen in our lifetimes - I'd really like a better answer than fix the broken windows mailer/pgp interface. Oh, and could someone on the evo (or gtkhtml) teams *please* implement the control-shift-arrow bindings to select-previous-word (rather than jump to the subject widget)?
