[Evolution] can't import event

2010-08-14 Thread Victoria Spagnolo
Kia Ora,
I been sent a calendar file, name.cvs, which I can't put into my
calendar. I tried clicking from the attachments (VCS/ICS calendar
attachment (First flight calendar appointment.vcs) and choosing import.
When that didn't work I saved the file to disk and tried File-import
and again nothing in the calendar. 

Ubuntu lucid, evo 2.28.3

you might also try

or ruby or other scripting languages
what format is your evolution mail in mbox, maildir, 

see the ruby script on this page -- mod it to output what you want, rather than 
splitting the file

Hi Reid,

Thanks once again for the tips, but I found it was easier to simply do :

grep Subject: COZA: OKAY: Updated domain CO.ZA\ Data  updated.txt

...straight from the command line in the Evolution local data folder.

At least I have a better understanding now of how Evolution mailboxes
work.

Thank you again for your desire to help, much appreciated.

Greetings community,

I have a specific folder in my Inbox which I need to search for emails
and manipulate the results.

I need to do this on the command line, something like :

SELEECT * from the Inbox/Folder_To_Search
WHERE Subject CONTAINS 'keyphrase'
AND date received is less than 01 August 2010

I want to have the full subject line of that email piped into a text
file so I can manipulate it with other bash commands.

Can someone help me, or point me to a tutorial on how I can script with
the Evolution folders, if possible.

So far Google search has given me no results I can work with, still
searching...

Thanks for your replies...

That's fine if the mailbox is local (which you hadn't said before) and
if it's in mbox format (it could be a maildir).

It's easiest if you don't do this kind of thing with Evolution -- do it
directly on the IMAP server instead.

Here's a quick hack based on my quarterly archive script...

Take a look at procmail, http://www.procmail.org/. It contains a program
called formail to manipulate emails in mbox format. That's how evolution
stores local mail.
Also, you could define a filter. As action you could choose to call a
program or pipe the mail through a program.

You just go to your address book, select the address and use the context
menu to forward as mail.
