Having had my rant, I would like to move this forward a bit more constructively. Could you please advise me if what I did is the right way to solve the problem even on the newest incarnation or what does/should happen. Hi, you should be asked for a new password, the send should not just fail. There was a bug on Fedora due to gcr package changes, but as you use Ubuntu it might be a different thing. Try to kill all evolution processes (ps ax | grep evolution) and then run /usr/libexec/evolution-source-registry (or a different place, I do not know where Ubuntu stores the file) from a console and watch its output. It shows AUTH lines, with Initiated and Completed, where the Completed also shows a resolution. It sometimes prints an error. You can alternatively run the source registry with gcr debugging: $ GCR_DEBUG=all /usr/libexec/evolution-source-registry which will also print information from gcr itself (I think it's all, but it can be also 1, I do not recall precisely).

Re: [Evolution] Evolution filters and outgoing mail
Apologies for replying to my own post, but there were no other replies and in the meantime I seem to have found a solution. I hope this might help someone else. I originally said: I have various filters set up, to redirect mail into other folders. These include filters on outgoing mail. What puzzles me is that outgoing mail that isn't caught by a filter doesn't end up in my Sent folder - or anywhere else that I can see. In the preferences the Sent folder is the one nominated for sent messages. My solution was to create a new folder which I called sent-mail, and to add a new filter at the end of the outgoing filters which would always match an outgoing message. The filter action was then to move (not copy - tried that and it didn't work) the message to the sent-mail folder. I did at first try setting the filter to copy the messages into Outbox or Sent, but neither of those options worked. I was only able to make things work with a folder that Evolution didn't seem to regard as in some way special. So I'm now back to being able to retain copies of messages I send. Whew!

[Evolution] Settings not being retained
Evolution 3.6.3 on openSuse 12.3 Hope I'm using the correct terminology here: When I start Evolution, there are 5 sections in the window, The Menu bar(s) across the top Upper left is a folder list. Lower left are buttons for Mail, Contacts, etc. Upper right is list of messages for the current folder. Lower right is a preview of the current message. In this version of Evolution, the size of the message preview section is not remembered and is shrunken down to the bottom of the main window. This is obviously a new undocumented feature, as it didn't act this way in previous versions. I am hesitant to upgrade the version number as it is not available in the openSuse repositories and I don't want to create any problems. This is not the end of the world, but I'm wondering if it is possible to manually modify the file where current settings are stored, and put in the sizes I wish? Would it stick then?

Perhaps they are separate packages? Perhaps evolution-help? Or somehow the GNOME help viewer isn't installed? If you can't view Help I'd think the situation is outside of Evolution. I'm using Evolution on an ARM-powered Chromebook running openSUSE 12.3... and help works here! If it works even here your distro must have seriously bolloxed their packaging. I'm using openSUSE 12.3 on this computer. However, I'm using the KDE desktop. I therefore had to manually install Evolution. I wonder if the help files were not included with the installation. As is my usual policy, I simply checked the little box in YaST that said Evolution and assumed the entire package would be installed. Perhaps I should change my methods, or perhaps Evolution should include the entire package, or list help as a dependency, as a default (would that be up to the openSUSE packagers?). I guess I could make a case for either of these options. ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

A similar issue was discussed on the list in the last few weeks. Check the list archives. poc According to the openSUSE forum, to update Evolution to version 3.8, I would have to update the entire Gnome system. As I stated, I'm using KDE, so I don't have all of Gnome installed. I really don't want to introduce any more instabilities. Does this mean I'll have to live with this until I change my version of openSUSE? Seems to me, I remember this problem occurred way, way back and was fixed. It came back?
