No. The solution may be to remove aspell* and reinstall the aspell packages built for Red Hat 7.1. Thanks for replying. I did all the installs and upgrades with redcarpet. I did try to uninstall and reinstall with RC all the *spell* packages. I got an off list reply from someone with the same setup who said they also got the same aspell/library error but spell checking was working for them. I did try a fresh test account and spell checking was also broken. I copied libltdl.so.3 from a RH8.0 machine to my RH7.1 and that fixed the aspell error, but still no spell checking in Evolution. It seems my problem was unique in some way. All upgrades and installs since the RH7.1 to Ximian desktop install have been with RC. At this point, my problem is resolved in the sense that I've upgraded (actually a fresh install) to RH8.0. I was waiting for something to give me that last little push to upgrade. RH7.1 was getting a little close to the edge of obsolescence (I needed the spell check for that!). I plan to run the stock RH version until I get a feel for the system and then I'll probably Ximianize again once RH8.0 desktop is supported or I miss RC or the latest Evolution too much. So I'm back to Evolution 1.0.8, spell checking is working, but I already miss the improvements in Evolution 1.2. Thanks, John -- John S.

Re: [Evolution] Evo 1.2 - spell checker missing English
Hi, Since my spell problem with evo 1.2, I've upgraded my system to RH8.0, but I went through my system backup from my RH7.1 and I did have a ~/.gconfd/lock/ior but no ~/.gconf/%gconf-xml-backend.lock/ior. I don't know how to tell if they were stale or not, but maybe this was the cause of my no languages available problem. I did have the menu entry in the composer window edit-spell check document available (not grayed out), but it never found any mispellings.

I had some stale gconf lock files : ~/.gconfd/lock/ior and ~/.gconf/%gconf-xml-backend.lock/ior. I simply removed them then re-logged and the languages are now available. This gconf bug has to do with NFS and/or system crashes. If you ever get weird configuration issues like this you can safely delete the lock files after closing all your applications, then re-login.

If I open these mails in pine, I can see the text (which has the real information in the first place) fine. I would like the option of seeing the text version (if it exits) of an email as the default with the HTML version as an attachment to be opened as I choose. It's still a matter of dealing with people who want to make a simple 3 line message pretty. In the worst case they'll make it a 1MB powerpoint slide to express less than 1 KB of info. I get HTML mail that is not spam, but in most cases there's a text equivalent with the email, but evolution won't let me choose which I want to see by default.

This is a very reasonable way to interpret this intentionally broken message. One way I can think of that might improve the situation is to check the mime type of the part and compare it to the mime type that gtkhtml requests on that stream, see the difference and add the the save part widget since it doesn't match.

Hi, I've done all the upgrades on RH7.1 using red-carpet on the RH7.1 and Ximian desktop channels and I noticed that spell check isn't working in evolution anymore. It seems to work OK in abiword. Do evo and abiword both use the same spell check back end? Anybody else notice this? I no longer get the instant spell check and the Edit-Spell Check Document is grayed out. Thanks, John -- John S.

Re: [Evolution] Re: Can't view .jpg
Hi, I'm posting this again, since I haven't heard anything... It doesn't detect. I can save the file to disk and it's definitely a jpg. Nautilus and gmc both recognize the file as jpg. This has been happening so much that I've added xv to the list of applications to use for unknown type in the File Types and Programs in GCC so evo will have it on it's list of available applications for unknown type attachment. What do you suggest? Is there some other config in evo I need to look at? I don't think I noticed this until about version 1.0 of Evo, prior to that I'd been using latest snapshots.

Re: [Evolution] Re: Can't view .jpg
OK. I fixed it. I went into GCC (1.5.9) and went to Advanced-File Types and Programs. I found the image/jpeg entry and changed the default action from Use Viewer to Open With Application. I restarted evolution and it works. I tried to break it again by setting it back to Use Viewer, but it won't break. (?) These long lists of mime types could really use a search engine!

[Evolution] search for numeric string in message body
This may be related to bug 11647. If I search for a numeric string in either Body or subject contains or Body contains for a string that is or contains numeric characters, the search fails. It will return matches for the subject in the Body or subject contains case. I noticed this in my redhat folder where I keep all the RHBAs and RHSAs and did a search for 7.2. I went to a message that had 7.2 in it and entered (cut and paste) the 7.2 from the body into the search and did searches on both subject and body and then body only. The first case returned 1 message with 7.2 in the subject. The message that I did the cut and paste from briefly showed the 7.2 string highlighted as a seach match does, but then the message disappeared. Similarly, a search for i386 returns no matched. I have RH7.1. I noticed this also in 200110291518 and I'm now seeing this also on 200111021518. -- John S.

[Evolution] Saving a message to finish later (Draft?)
Hi, When I'm composing a message and need to stash it away to finish later, what's the way to do this? I tried file-Save draft and it put the message into the draft folder, but I can't figure out how to reopen it for editing. I can move it to the sent folder and then I can edit-Edit as New message..., but this seems the long way around. It gives me an error if I try the edit-Edit as New message... directly from the draft folder. You may only resend messages in the Sent folder Also the message gets HTMLized when I put it in the draft folder.

This is for people who want to share mbox folders between mail clients. So for example you could tell evolution to read an mbox spool such as /home/user/Mail/inbox that might actually be part of Balsa, KMail, mutt, pine, etc - Local Delivery is if you want Evolution to download mail from say /var/spool/mail/user and filter it into your various other folders (assuming you have filters setup, otherwise it delivers them to Inbox). 2. What is Mail-dir format mail directories ? If you don't know, you probably don't have it :-) Maildir is the mail format that QMail uses, I think mutt also has support for it.

[Evolution] Printing calendar
I'm seeing some things when printing (and previewing) calendar views. 1. Text overflows boundaries in any view. I suspect this may be related to some of the gtkHTML bugs already reported. Those have been for printing mail, but I see essentially the same thing in calendar printing. 2. When printing (or preview) Selected Week, it mangles what I see on screen for Week View (not work week). The week View shows 2 columns of days and I have it set so Sat Sun share the upper left box split horizontally. Then Mon Tues are the 2nd and 3rd boxes down in the 1st column and Wed-Fri are the second column. In print (and preview), the upper left half box formerly Sat, is blank, Sun Mon are the 2nd 3rd boxes down. Fri has come up from the bottom box 2nd col and Tues from bottom box 1st col to overwrite each other in top box 2nd col. Wed Thur are now the 2nd and 3rd boxes, 2nd col.

Re: [Evolution] From field with replies
OK. This info helps me narrow down the behavior I think is strange. If I reply to a message where the To: field is one of my identities in the mail settings, then the From: will match that. What I notice is that if I'm replying and the To: is not one of my identities (e.g. the To: field is this mailing list), then it's not using my default ID but a different one that happens to be first in the list of 4 accounts, default is last. This account is also disabled. So it seems to me to make more sense to use the default ID in this case instead of another one on the list. If it does use the first on the list, there should be an easy way of reordering them. Does this mean that default account only applies to new messages? What other attributes (if any) does the 'default' account have except for the From: on new messages? Next question. Does the status 'enabled' or 'disabled' just turn on or off receiving mail or does it affect other things?
