Re: [Evolution-hackers] Can Camel/Evo allow on demand downloads for attachments?
Jeff, Thanks for the pointer. It would have been a lot easier to have a HOWTO documents that explains how to write a plugin for evolution. Reading the code isn't the best way to figure out what to do because you have to look at all the source code just to try to find something to do and that can be very time consuming.

You'll find that it does NOT download all parts, it gets a BODY (very similar to a BODYSTRUCTURE) and constructs empty parts based on that. When the mailer requests the contents of a MIME part, if that part's contents are 'offline' it goes out and fetches them.

Re: [Evolution-hackers] How To Create a Camel Mime/Content Info?
I'm trying to use the header that I already have and it's being stored into the camel. Whenever somebody click on a message then I retrieve the body.

Re: [Evolution-hackers] Calling construct() multiply times?
Figured out why I kept getting called back into the construct() callback whenever I select a folder. In the connect() callback, I checked to see if service-url-port is 0, if so, set it to the port to the default port number. I did this because I wanted to know what the port number whereever I'm at in the code. That port number is messing it up and I haven't figured out what Camel is doing but I just #ifdef the code out for now and hard coded all the port number to what I need to use.

[Evolution-hackers] Calling construct() multiply times?
Why is Camel keep calling my construct() routine multiple times? I have the callback setup to call into my connect() function and I do my own connection, return TRUE. Camel then calls my get_folder_info() and I return the folder tree. I select a folder that I want to show the messages, Camel then calls my construct() and connect() again when I already have a connection. What do I need to tell Camel since I don't need another connection, I already have it. Note, I'm not using any of Camel connection calls to establish the connection to the server, I'm doing it. ___ evolution-hackers maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers
Re: [Evolution-hackers] Calling construct() multiply times?
I constructed my base_url as: provider://username@server/ In get_folder_info_online() I created a URL for each folder as: provider://username@server/folder1 That URL is being created by camel_url_to_string(). In hash_folder_name(), I get: provider://username@server/folder1;noselect=yes but, I don't get ;noselect=yes for all the folders, just some (I haven't looked into what ;noselect=yes means). I'm not including any port number for the URL. I should also mention that when I get called into my construct() the first time, the path is set to /, but when I click on a folder and it called construct(), the path is now /folder1.

Most likely, the URLs you're returning from get_folder_info do not compare as equal to the URL that was used to build the folder tree, and so it's creating a new store object. Eg, if the URL you configured in the config dialog is foobar://server:999, and get_folder_info returns foobar://server/folder1, foobar://server/folder2, etc, and your url hash and compare functions look at the port number, then it would create a new store foobar://server to fetch the folders from. Likewise with the other URL components. -- Dan ___ evolution-hackers maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers ___ evolution-hackers maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers
Re: [Evolution-hackers] Sharing mailboxes with windows
That won't help if the ISP only is using POP3 and they don't allow you to store your messages on the server for x amount days so you have to get them off. Of course, that solution should be that you create your own IMAP server that fetch the mail off the POP3 server but how many normal users would want to spend the time and effort to do that?

One problem with this is that the mail you have fetched in windows is not available in Linux and vice versa. One solution to this is to create a utility that evolution calls upon start and exit. On start to fetch all new items in windows (outlook/outlook express) mailbox and insert them into proper places in evolutions mailbox, and on exit to copy all new items in evolutions mailbox to windows. If this is not possible, another solution is to do a windows port of evolution. This would make it possible to have the evolution on the Linux partition to use the mailbox of the evolution on the windows partition and the problem is solved nicely. How hard is it to do such port ? I understand thatn Gnome2.0 shall be multi platform. Will that make porting linux programs like evolution easier ?
