[Evolution] Error when Sending
I use a .Mac mail account. Sometimes when their server is having trouble, I get an authentication error : http://12.233.82.128/~mpeters/images/evolution_error.png It asks me to re-enter the password, and stops checking until I do. The problem is that I subscribe to a LOT of e-mail lists - and if I'm gone for a week (sometimes even a weekend if the lists are busy) my 15mb of pop can get filled. If I have my box running an popping every half hour while I am gone, my mail box doesn't fill. But this breaks if there is this error. Is there any way to configure evolution to cancel its pop attempt if it gets this error, and just try again at the next scheduled pop? My e-mail password doesn't change, evolution should be able to have a setting to ignore that error and just try again later. Anyone know how to do this? -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Michael A.

[Evolution] Spell Check, Wrap
When I upgraded to Evolution 1.12 it seems spell check broke. This is RH 8.0 - upgraded through Red Carpet. What do I need to be able to enable it? -=- Second- How do I set up word wrap? I want to make sure my message text is wrapped, so that it won't be annoying to pine etc. users. I can't find a preference for this. -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Michael A.

[Evolution] RH8 + 1.2 = crash
I am running RH8 and I installed the 1.2 evolution via Red Carpet. Twice now right after sending a message - I get notification that whatever controls the Inbox has crashed, and that I need to restart evolution in order to use that component. It's only happened twice - and do a lot of mail - so its not an everytime thing. But it never happened in 1.0.8 Is there any way for me to get a dump or something else that would be useful in figuring out the problem? -- Michael A.

[Evolution] Managing Lists
I have a contact list from people in my Sunday School class. We don't use a list server, a speadsheet of names and e-mail addresses is simply updated and sent to everyone. I created contacts for everyone in the lists and created a category that all these people are part of. I then created a list contact and had the evolution contact manager sort by category and dragged all the contacts onto the list. Works very well - except it seems every few weeks someone changes their e-mail. When I change the e-mail address of the contact, though - the contact list does not get auto updated - so I have to find the contact in that list, delete the old one, and then drag the person onto it again. Is there a better way to do this? I would like to be able to just change the primary e-mail in the person's contact profile and have any lists that person is on auto-updated. What happens is the list starts out alphabetical, not difficult to deal with when I need to delete a e-mail from the list - but when I then drag their contact with the updated e-mail onto the list, it gets put at the bottom. New people added to the list also appear at bottom. The order in the list then becomes non alphabetical over time, which adds to the problem of having to update more than one component. I *really* would like to be able to just update a contact and have any lists that contact is on automagically updated. I have a list for this Sunday School class, a list for personal, a list for family, etc. and some people are on more than one contact list. Thanks for any suggestions. ___ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
Re: [Evolution] Managing Lists
Click the Contacts button. Next to the search menu is another pull down menu - one of the options is Category is. Select that - and you should be able to pick from any of the categories which will then be in the next menu. This is with Ximian 1.0.8 that ships with Red Hat 8 - I haven't used any other versions of Ximian. On Sat, 2002-11-23 at 12:44, Shawn Perry wrote: How did you get that to sort by category? I would love to be able to group by category, but for some reason, that is not an option in any of the drop-down lists. Thanx in advance, Shawn On Sat, 2002-11-23 at 13:02, Michael A.

Re: [Evolution] JPEGs from a Mac OS X
I can try sending myself a jpeg from my OS X box and see if my evolution has any issues with it (Red Hat Linux). What happens when you scp said jpeg from his OS X box to your linux box?

My Dad just made the switch from a WinTel machine to a blowtorch of a Mac (it's really sweet). He's still climbing the learning curve, so we've hit a hitch we can't get over. He attaches a jpeg picture (he's a huge railfan, likes trains) to an e-mail and sends it to me. It comes in and I can't do ANYthing with it. I see the attachment. I cannot view it in The GIMP, Electric Eyes... nothing. I save it to disk, and it saves, but when I try to pull it up, I get Unknown. But, it's a standard JPEG. Seems to me it's a coding config problem. Does anyone know what might be the problem? He says he can send the same pic to his WinTel machine (via Juno, another dial-up he has) and it comes through fine in WinDoze.

Re: [Evolution] mac os x
I do have one comment- Smart move looking for something other than Mail.app Mail.app chokes on me after about 3 days worth of my high volume mail. I kept trying it every time (looking for something better than Sylpheed which I had been using on Linux) they updated it- but it always choked after a few days and became unusable. I get a lot of mail. But now I've found evolution (RH8) which hasn't choked yet- and has a better interface than _any_ mail client I've ever used :) // I do wish that when updating an e-mail address of a contact, that the e-mail address in a list that contact has been added to would also get updated- but that's minor On Mon, 2002-10-21 at 11:11, Oliver Kurlvink wrote: hi there :) in december i'll quit using freebsd and switch to a mac with mac os x installed. during the beginnings of using this new os i want to use the software which i use currently, i.e. evo, xemacs, abiword, gnumeric and so on. i know that abiword, xemacs and gnumeric run on os x. do you have any information if evo runs on os x when you install an x-server, the darwin-base-archives and use the darwin-ports oder fink? is there a darwin/osx-package for evo and the dependencies like on freebsd? ciao :) ___ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
[Evolution] vFolder and Categories
I want to create a vFolder where the search criteria looks at the from address (or sender or whatever) and checks to see if that e-mail address belongs to any contact in the category blahdedah. Is that possible? I can't seem to figure out how. ___ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
