 2.11.x (x == 5 for me currently) does this.  If you don't want to run
 development versions you will just have to be a bit patient.

Uff, isn't there any hack or some clever option to enable/disable to get
this running on my Fedora Core 6 desktop with Evolution 2.8.3 ?

Wait a minute you have 2.6.3? or is it a typo?

I tried just for test running:
# yum update evolution --enablerepo=development

and got 20 screens of dependencies and needed upgrades :) that would
kill my machine I could bet it would.

[Evolution] switching to HTML

2007-07-21 Thread carpetnailz
I have my evolution mail set to show plain text only, but occasionally I
get a piece of html mail that I need to see as html. Is there some way
to change on the fly for just that piece of mail rather than having to
go to the edit-preferences-mail preference location and change the
setting globallly, and the having to go to change it back again when
I've finished with that piece of mail?

Related question: what does the Prefer Plain setting do?

thanks.

[Evolution] Evolution for Windows

2007-07-21 Thread barsalou
I just joined the list and did a quick search through the evolution 
lists to see if there were any reference to windows and got no 
responses.

Is there no development of Evolution for windows?

I could swear that I have seen some references in the past, but to not 
have any references on the evolution mailling list seems odd.

Where am I going wrong?

Re: [Evolution] spam filtering

  Are you saying that I'd have to set up spamassassin on my laptop to
  filter the spam before it gets to evo? That certainly is a possible
  solution, but it would be a drag.

Others have already weighed in on this, but to speak specifically
about Ubuntu:

Evo on Ubuntu is built with both the spamassassin and bogofilter
plugins.  However, as others have said, both plugins simply interact
with the already-installed tools on your system; they don't contain
those tools themselves.

I agree with the majority: bogofilter is far and away the better
choice.  So, go to your package manager and install bogofilter, then
go to the evo plugins and select the bogofilter plugin and deselect
the spamassassin plugin.  Then restart evo, and start training
bogofilter.  Remember that you need to check your junk folder and mark
incorrectly tagged messages as not spam as well: that's an important
part of the training.  It won't take too long (depending on how much
mail you get) before things start working as you expect.

As with others here, bogofilter is now all but perfect for me when
detecting spam.  I couldn't live without it.

In case you're interested in more info re bogofilter.. the faq has some 
quick info re training etc... ( note:  per above, I believe you have to 
have training on BOTH ham and spam before bogofilter will be able to 
effectively mark mail )

Re: [Evolution] Very serious problem with evo-exchange 2.11.5

2007-07-21 Thread Paul D. Smith
From your description of the bug, Yes, what you seem to be hitting is
some consequence of syncing some updates.  IIUC, I just leave a system
running evolution-exchange and fetching mails, should reproduce this
issue, isn't it, Paul?

Yes, it should.

Let me prepare a system and watch it for a day to reproduce.  Meanwhile,
any lead in anyway to narrow it down to any particular scenario will be
much useful for me to quickly jump into the issue and solve it.

I don't have too much helpful to say about this.  I'm on vacation at
the moment so I don't have access to Evo for debugging, etc.  If you
can't reproduce it I can try to figure out whether it's a particular
message or type of message that causes the problem.  I always am
running the debug versions of Evo under full debugging and keeping the
log files, but there doesn't seem to be any messages.

One thing I've noticed about the Evo code in the past is that it
doesn't do hardly any error checking.  Functions don't check their
arguments for things like NULL pointers very often, and they also
often don't check the return values of other functions to verify that
they're sane.  Because of this, debug output isn't as useful as it
could be and core dumps often happen at a distance (sometimes a far
distance) from where the error actually occurs.  I haven't looked at
the code since the 2.6/2.8 versions so maybe it's gotten better
since.
