[Evolution] "MigrateEvolutionToNewComputer" did not work
Hello, I just transferred my evolution to a new computer, following the instructions given in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MigrateEvolutionToNewComputer. And actually, I already had success with these instructions last week while transferring to an interim computer while awaiting the arrival of my new computer. So I know the instructions work, and I know I was able to follow them last week. But now that my new computer has arrived, after doing the transfer I found that evolution would not open. When I click on evolution to start it up, it gives only a brief flash on the bottom panel of the following two messages: "Starting Evolution Mail", and then "Migrating...". But then nothing ever opens. The process I followed in executing the transfer was to first do: gconftool-2 --shutdown evolution --force-shutdown And then: Copy the directories ~/.evolution, ~/.gconf/apps/evolution and ~/.gnome2_private/Evolution from the source computer to the same place on the target computer. So all the above I did, and Evolution is not opening on the new computer. I should also state that Evolution was never used or opened on the new computer prior to transferring over the above directories. What went wrong, and what do I need to do to get Evo to open???

[Evolution] Font size printing calendar
I have Evolution 2.26.1 installed as a part of Ubuntu 9.04. I succeeded in creating some calendar entries (appointments, and events with no time). In printing I find that the events with no time are printed with extremely small fonts while the appointments are fine. I have googled to find out how to correct this problem with no success. How can these fonts sizes be modified? Thanks... Tom. ___ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

Not sure about Calendar (I don't use it). Drafts might be local or
remote, depending on your Defaults config for the account. There is no
standard folder called Deleted Items (at least in Evo 2.24 which is what
I use) so I don't know what that is. Looks like something left behind by
Thunderbird or another client (Mail.app?).

That is currently my main > reason for wanting to try the MAPI connector. No.. not as of now. IIRC, evo-mapi does not have a GAL implementation yet in trunk. There was a hacked up version, based on LDAP but it was buggy and required some new internal APIs. Bottomline is: evo-mapi needs a GAL backend implementation. When it is done, its ability to talk to GAL servers within the firewall is purely a function of libmapi.

I have evo 2.26.1.1 installed so there is a database file present. I'll
try moving away folders.db when back home. If I remove the whole
sub-directory under will everything be restored? A lot of
folders exist in the folders directory: INBOX, Calendar, Drafts, Deleted
Items, etc?? If removing files, I assume only the files under INBOX can
be removed, not the other ones.

Since it's an IMAP folder you can remove everything and Evo will just
recreate it, though it might take a while depending on your connection
speed and the folder size. However if you want to remove the minimum
possible, the answer will depend on your version of Evo which so far you
haven't mentioned. The reason is that recent versions use an SQLite
database for folder info while earlier ones used a variety of index
files.
If you have a folders.db file in ~/.evolution/mail/imap/
then yours is a recent version of Evo. Try just moving it aside ("mv
folders.db folders.db.backup"). Do this with Evo completely stopped of
course ("evolution --force-shutdown"), then restart Evo and see what
happens.

Re: [Evolution] Evolution-Exchange on Ubuntu Jaunty
Thanks Suman. A couple of follow up questions. Our server is 2003. Do the two connectors function in such a way that I can try the MAPI connector, but switch back to OWA when needed, i.e., are they activated and deactivated like plug ins? Our domain controller/GAL server is behind our firewall. Browser access to OWA allows GAL look ups over the Internet from remote locations. Evo-OWA allows look ups over the LAN only; not from the other side of the firewall. Will evo-mapi facilitate GAL look ups remotely?
