[Evolution] EWS and the addressbook
Generally, I'm finding the EWS extension for Evolution to work quite well. But I do have one significant and one minor complaint. Perhaps there is something I'm doing wrong ... The major problem is that I can't get the Exchange addressbook to be visible to Evolution. I have triple-checked the OAB URL shown by Outlook and I'm sure I've entered it correctly. But any attempt to access the AB gets the message, e-data-server-ui-WARNING **: ENameSelector: Could not load AD: TLS not available, and Evolution's UI shows a red box stating, Unable to open address book This address book cannot be opened. This either means that an incorrect URI was entered, or the server is unreachable. Detailed error message: TLS not available I have also seen a possibly related message when viewing mail (not trying to access the AB), SendMeetingInvitationsOrCancellations attribute is required for Calendar items. The minor problem is that, although my filters clearly specify that one of the actions to take for certain messages is Set Status: Read, the messages remain unread. When I explicitly read a message, it takes about two seconds for the read attribute to change. Then when I view a different folder, the unread attribute returns. When I return to the folder with the message I already read, it initially shows unread, then changes to read after a few seconds. After the second time, the read attribute seems to finally stick. -- Dave Close ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
Re: [Evolution] sort by date and group by threads

Is there a way (gsettings or so) to revert back to the previous behaviour ? Hi, there might happen something with your GConf options, because the key is still the same. Either run gconf-editor and edit /apps/evolution/mail/display/thread_latest to true or run this command: $ gconftool-2 --set --type=bool \ /apps/evolution/mail/display/thread_latest true though with the gconf-editor you might be able to review other thread_* options there.

Bye, Hello, Thanks for your answer. The thread_latest is on. I unchecked it, restarted evo: no change. re-checked it, restarted evo: no change again. thread_list and thread_expand are true too, thread_subject is false. Any clue ?

Hi, hmm, then I may guess that there is something with GConf which is run by evolution itself, causing it to read values from a different GConf store. On the first look. But that's quite unusual. You can try to change sorting in the folder, maybe it changed? Just right-click above the table header, it doesn't matter which column, and pick Sort By-Custom and there is a Sort... button. I sort by Date (not by Received), and it works as expected.

How should I check if the gconf is good ? -- Bastien Durel ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

I am running against Exchange 2007 by the way. I copied my OAB in from Outlook and that fact that it works a few times and then stops 9and the fact that the problem is closed upstream according to the bug report I did on it) tell me only that the address book functionality is not as stable as the rest of the EWS feature yet.
