Hi,
it's weird, because if you are an organizer and you change anything in 
the meeting, then you should be asked by the evolution whether you 
want to notify the participants or not.

You might even not being able to edit the meeting if not an organizer, 
thus this is probably not a problem. [1]

Do you not get the question only when you are creating a fresh new 
meeting, or you miss the Send/Do Not Send question also when changing 
an already existing meeting? If it's the former, then it's a bug and 
worth a report.

If you cannot edit created meetings, then the issue is elsewhere. 
Bye,
Milan

[1] Evolution recognizes that the user is the organizer if any of the 
configured mail accounts email address matches the email address of 
the organizer.

Hi,
okay, a quick search for a timezone related recent changes brought me 
to these two bugs:
   https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=722416
   https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=722419
which are part of evolution-ews 3.12.0+. These should fix the timezone 
issue for you, though it would be also good to test it, to see whether 
it's really fixed for you.

Milan

[Evolution] Restoring data to new HDD

[Donald Sowers]

Greetings,

I am having to change HDDs and with that from Solydx testing to Solydx
stable.  Testing has Evol. 3.12.6 and stable has Evol. 3.4.4.   The
testing OS will become the stable OS sometime early next year hopefully
with 3.12.6 but I don't know for sure. 

I believe they will not restore backwards in versions.  I have a tar.gz
with 3.12.7 but I have never successfully installed one.  Can this be
done on this Debian system or do I have to wait for next year?

I have both OSs going right now so email is still working and I have
time to ponder this.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,   Don

Are you sure you correctly disabled it?
OpenSSL has a cipher parameter, which also accept protocols as an alias
for all ciphers from that version. Such setting looks like it's the way
to disable SSL3, but what it does is to disable all SSL3 ciphers. TLS1
doesn't add new ciphers, so a change like that ends up disabling TLS1,
too.
Any TLS1 connection to a system with such configuration will end up
failing with a "no shared ciphers" error.

Which of the version fields are you looking at? You should inside the
Client Hello (bytes 10-11), NOT at the handshake (bytes 4-5).

I would start checking that the server does support TLS1.

[Evolution] [Calendar] Automatically send invitations to participants of a meeting

[Paul Menzel]

Dear Evolution users,


I started to use Evolution’s calendar with the Radicale CalDAV
(calendar) and CardDAV (contact) server [1] and the client, in this case
Evolution, has to send out the invitations as the server does not
support that.

When scheduling a meeting, I can list the participants. Is there an
option that Evolution sends an invitation to these automatically? That
would save me from having to manually right click on the vent and choose
“Forward as iCalendar” in the context menu [2]?

I am using Debian Sid/unstable with Evolution 3.12.7.


Thanks,

Paul

[Evolution] Outbox auto flush

[Michelle]

Hi Folks,

New to Evolution, using 3.10.4 on Mint 17, 64 bit.

The mail client runs all day and filters sling important personal e-mail
to my mobile phone account when I'm at work, but although the filters
themselves are working, the mail is sitting in the outbox and aren't
being sent.

I read old forum threads about, "invisible options," and various other
bits about settings in the gconf editor which aren't present in mine. 

The other folders auto sync fine, but just not the outbox.

Most of my day is spent away from home and this is an important thing
for me. Any help gratefully appreciated.

Re: [Evolution] corrupted folder, email headers don't match contents

[evo user]

Thanks!!  Deleting folders.db and reloading from server fixed the problem. Glad 
to hear this is not a common/reoccurring problem!! I hate it when stuff gets 
corrupted.


 
 Hi, 
it seems your local folder summary got corrupted for some reason (I do 
not recall when I saw anything similar the last time). You can let 
evolution re-download the whole summary, it's just a copy of the 
server data, when you delete it from the disk. The file with the 
summary is stored at: 
 ~/.cache/evolution/mail//folders.db 
It's an SQLite database, and you can eventually delete only the table 
of the name of the affected folder, but if you never played with SQL 
as such then a remove of the folders.db file is the easiest way. Of 
course, the next start evolution will download summary information for 
all your folders, thus if you have many messages, then it'll take its 
time. 
 Bye, 
 Milan

Hi,
a link for the fix is here:
https://mail.gnome.org/archives/evolution-list/2014-October/msg00113.html

The STARTTLS doesn't work for IMAP if the server doesn't advertise it 
as a possible authentication method, while it can still use TLS 
algorithms with "SSL" (secure connection).

Hi,
your version uses GSettings, and the editor for it is called
dconf-editor. Go to /org/gnome/evolution/mail and check the
'flush-outbox' option. Alternatively use a command line:
   $ gsettings get org.gnome.evolution.mail flush-outbox
to see what is stored there (might be 'true' or 'false') and command
   $ gsettings set org.gnome.evolution.mail flush-outbox true
to "check" the option.
Hope it helps,
Milan

Is your IMAP server actually an Exchange server ( but accessed via 
IMAP, of course )? If it is, it's a server problem. 
 
I've seen this happen with Exchange servers accessed via EWS, I would 
not be surprised if this problem manifested itself via IMAP as well.

[Evolution] corrupted folder, email headers don't match contents

[evo user]

I have evolution (3.10.4) configured as IMAP. One of my folders seems 
corrupted. All of the emails in that one folder appear 'offset', that is the 
header information doesn't match the content of any particular email. For 
example, the email appears to be from sender 'xyz', but the contents is the 
contents of a different email from sender 'abc' (in the same folder). Only one 
folder seems corrupted. Very troubling. FYI, when I log in to the server via 
webmail, everything looks OK. I tried re-running 'download emails for offline 
use', and that didn't change anything.

It's to do with Evolution not handling SSL connections properly.  See

https://mail.gnome.org/archives/evolution-list/2014-October/msg00107.html

The solution for 3.10.x is to use STARTTLS, which gets it right.  It has
been fixed in later versions.

[Evolution] TLSv1+ support

[Nik Mitev]

Hi,

I am using Evolution v 3.10.4, as distributed with Ubuntu 14.04
After the recent SSLv3 vulnerabilities I disabled SSLv3 support on my
dovecot server, leaving TLS1, 1.1 and 1.2
This broke connectivity and evolution now complains that
"no common encryption algorithms exist".
ssldump on the server shows that a SSLv3 hello is issued by Evolution.
Since that is not supported, the connection dies without an attempt to
use any of the newer protocols.

Is there a setting for it that I am missing? Can proper TLS support be
manually compiled in? I would really hate to have to switch mail
clients.

Thanks,
Nik
