[Evolution] multiple email addresses

2001-11-28 Thread Marc Williams

I'm using Evo v0.99.2 and I really like it.  I find new things to like
about it almost daily.   Excuse me if this issue has already been
raised.  I didn't find it very easy to search through the archives.

When composing new or reply mail, I like to press the "To:" button which
then brings up a list of contacts from which to choose.  So far, so
good.  However, many of my contacts have multiple email addresses.  (The
address book allows up to 3 if memory servers).  But the chooser doesn't
seem to allow me to choose which email address I wish to use for the
contact I wish to select.  I don't recall right now which address it
selects for me; if it's the first one or maybe it's all of them.  

At any rate, shouldn't I be able to select which address I wish to use
for each contact in my address book when using the "To:" button? 
Thanks!

[Evolution] command line?

2001-12-04 Thread Marc Williams

Is there a way to start Evolution with To: and Subject: via the command
line?  The --usage screen didn't indicate there was so I thought I'd ask
here.

I'd like to be able to plug Evolution as my mailer into my new browser
(Galeon) but haven't seen the appropriate command line switches to do
this.  To: and Subject: are almost required.  Others would be nice. 
Thanks!

It works exactly as you described.  Thanks!  And now I feel quite stupid
since there is a FAQ that I hadn't even looked at before posting.  My
apologies.  Now I will go look for the new Control panel.

[Evolution] usage questions

2002-02-17 Thread Marc Williams

There are a couple usage questions I have for which I couldn't find the
answers in the Evo help or FAQ.  I'm using 1.02.  I'm attempting to make
this a useful tool for my home LAN.

1) At the bottom of the Contact Editor, New Appointment, and New Task
screens (and next to the "Categories" field) is a field for "Contacts"
which, when queried, opens a Contact List chooser.  I don't understand
the purpose of this "Contacts" field.  Can someone explain?

2) The Contact List editor has a tab called "Collaboration" with a
couple of URL fields.  I don't understand their purpose or how to use
them if someone could explain this to me also.

Thanks!

[Evolution] feature request(s)

2002-02-20 Thread Marc Williams

If there's a better place for feature requests, please advise.

1) I would like for there to be the option of automatic and immediate
expunge upon message deletion rather than just expunging when exiting
and hiding deleted messages, both of which I do now.

2) When scheduling meetings, the participants have the option of being
scheduled as Required, Optional, or Non-Participant.  Yet when they
receive the meeting invitation (in their Evolution), they don't have the
option of the meeting being free or busy; just Accepting, Tentative, or
Decline.  I think that Accept and Tentative should both have options for
the time being free or busy.  Furthermore, if the invitation was sent to
a Required Participant the default for the recipient should be
Accept/Busy.  If the meeting was sent to a Non-participant, the default
for the recipient should be Accept/Free.

Thanks for a great product!

I understand.  But Non-Participant is (or can be) also used for CC'ing
someone about a meeting.  You want them to know about the meeting but
not require their participation.  This was a often used feature of
Groupwise, the hands down best Groupware app I've ever used.  No offense
intended.  :-)

Re: [Evolution] Re: evolution on cygwin?

I'm doing the exact same thing as Kenneth.  One RH 7.1 server (X client)
and four Win98 machines running Cygwin/XFree86 (X server).  Not doing
SSH but rather logging in to the Gnome desktop with Evo autostarting. 
Works well.  If I get ambitious, I might try SSH to avoid having to
login to the Gnome desktop.

Boy how I wish there were a native Windows Evo...(but this method
does work quite well).

Yup, I understand.  I was just saying that in order to avoid the Win

However, I happen to agree with you that there should be a dialog to

[Evolution] Publishing Free/Busy

2002-03-05 Thread Marc Williams

A few weeks ago, someone in this list posted instructions for publishing
Evo calendar free/busy information to Outlook users and visa versa.  The
posting is here:

http://lists.ximian.com/archives/public/evolution/2002-January/016556.html

It seems like a lot of good and useful information.  But in my case,
it's a little over my head never having used procmail

So, is there anyone here who could translate this information into
something for Evo to Evo users instead of Evo to Outlook and at the same
time, make the procmail info a little easier to understand.  Or if
there's other ways to accomplish this, I'd like to hear that too.

Thanks!

Re: [Evolution] Accented characters

One of the things I miss most from my Windows days was how drop dead
easy it was to type Extended ASCII characters.  Alt + code.  That's
all.  Worked from any text entry window.  If I wanted an enye (n with a
tilde diacritical - I would demonstrate but I have no idea how from my
Evolution window), type 164.  Done.  Charts of Extended ASCII
characters can be found in hundreds of places on the web.  I always had
one at the ready.

If there is a likewise easy way in Linux, I would like to be
enlightened.

Dear ximian.com people:

What are the chances of seeing a MS Windows version of Evo in my

How about Macintosh?

How about an Evo server?

The reason I ask is because with the impending release of StarOffice /
OpenOffice to the Windows world, there is getting less and less need to
be dependent upon MS Office.  Except for Outlook.  Being able to deep
six Outlook would be the plum that many people and companies seek. 
Losing Exchange would be a bonus.

Thanks for any scuttlebutt or rumors (or even hard facts!) you can
share.

[Evolution] tasks

2002-04-11 Thread Marc Williams

Not sure if this is a usability problem on my part or something I'm
overlooking or a bug.  But there's two issues with tasks that I've
found:

1) When I complete a task (checkbox) that's been assigned by some other
Evo user, that user (the assigner) isn't notified.  I think he should
be.

2) When I complete a task, I would like that task to be hidden, and not
just crossed out.  A la hidden read messages.

Thanks for the tip.  It's better than nothing but a little awkward if
one wants to quickly review a completed task.

[Evolution] no resend??

2002-05-01 Thread Marc Williams

Hmmm...  I just went into my sent folder, right clicked on a message
expecting to be able to choose "Resend" on a particular message that I
wanted to resend but that choice wasn't there.  I'm not saying it ever
was, but shouldn't it be?  IIRC, I could do that with one of my previous
email apps.  (Groupwise maybe?)  Anyway, I think it should be an option.

Well, I might be missing something quite fundamental here, but none of
the menu choices seem to be anything like what you are suggesting.  A
bunch of "reply" and "forward" options but I don't see anything that
looks like what you are saying.

Even so, how do I "Send" it once it's been "Open"ed?  "Send" doesn't
appear to be an option.

Aha!!  For awhile there, I thought I was going crazy.  I'll be glad to

Re: [Evolution] This message crashes Evo (attached)

2002-05-02 Thread Marc Williams

And I'll pass along my $.02 too in case anyone else runs a Cyrus server.

I logged into my mail server and simply deleted the offending message. 
Then as user Cyrus, I ran reconstruct against my user mailbox.  Not sure
if this is appropriate or necessary, but it seemed to work.

[Evolution] Feature request

2002-05-03 Thread Marc Williams

What I used to use a fair amount back in my Groupwise days was a thing
they called Reply Request (IIRC).  This was kind of a hybrid of an
assigned task and a message.

After completing your message text but before hitting send, you would
select Reply Request from the tool bar (again IIRC) and then select a
date.  What would then happen is a very official looking piece of text
would be prepended to the message body ominously warning the recipient
that a reply was expected by such and such date.

It's been awhile so others may have a better recollection of exactly how
this feature behaved.  All  I know is that I found it frequently quite
handy.

Any chance of getting that feature added here at some point?  Thanks!

[Evolution] editing recurring events

2002-05-05 Thread Marc Williams

I just grabbed Evo 1.04 off of Red Carpet.  So far, so good.  But I
noticed something that I'm not entirely sure is new; it might've been
there in previous versions.  I'm not sure.

I can't seem to edit just one instance of a recurring event.  I can
*delete* just one instance.  But when I attempt to *edit* an instance
and then save, the edit appears to apply to all instances of that
event.  

Am I doing something wrong, is it a bug, or is this the intended
behavior?  Thanks!

[Evolution] Free Busy solution?

2002-09-04 Thread Marc Williams

I saw this project recently posted to Freshmeat:

http://jical.sourceforge.net/

and was wondering if anyone has had a chance to try it out.  It looks
pretty slick but since it requires Jboss, it might be a bit over my
head.  Not really sure, but the whole application server and j2ee
subjects usually leave me a little glassy-eyed.

Any other method out there to implement FB and group scheduling with Evo
only and not Exchange?

[Evolution] meeting auto accept?

Is there a way to automatically accept a meeting?  One of the filters

If not, could that feature be added?

I don't seem to have this problem with 1.2.  We use the calendars quite
a lot so I'm fairly certain we would've notice a problem such as you
describe.
