[Evolution] Stripping big attachments

[Jeffrey Cunningham]

I often receive emails at work which consist of large data file
attachments along with lengthy text discussions in the body of the
email. One of the things I did like about Thunderbird was that I could
save the attachments then strip them so that I could keep the email
text in the thread it was part of without hammering the IMAP server
with all these huge data files. Is there a way to strip attachments in
Evolution? 

Regards,

Please state the Evolution version, not the OS version which is rarely
of any relevance. See Help->About.

Hi,
there is no way in the GUI. It used to be possible in the past, but it
had been removed years ago. You can do it yourself by editing the
corresponding file in ~/.config/evolution/sources/, where you replace
  BackendName=sendmail
with 
  BackendName=smtp
in the corresponding .source file in the [Mail Transport] section.
A restart of evolution-source-registry might be needed to get the
changes into effect, ideally change the file when it's not running, but
it's not always possible from a desktop environment. After the change
run Evolution and edit the account SMTP settings there.

Hmm, that doesn't tell me anything, neither anyone using a different
distribution than you. At least the version of Evolution from the
Help->About menu will be better, eventually package versions of all
evolution* packages.
Bye,
Milan

Re: [Evolution] No duplicate messages found.

I resolved the duplicate messages issue by disabling by disabling the "Sent 
Messages Folder" in the Account Editor Defaults.

We use outlook.office365.com as our mail server here at work. I am

running Evolution 3.28.5 (3.28.5-2.el7) on my laptop under CentOS.

Sending an email from my laptop results in a copy in my local Sent

folder and one in the remote Outlook sent folder. I  also use an

Android for mobile Outlook mail. When I move the remote Outlook sent

folder contents to my laptop local sent folder, sent messages are

clearly shown duplicated. Ctrl-A and "Remove Duplicate Messages"

results in the following:


Folder 
“michael.duv...@concurrent-rt.com : 
Sent Items” doesn’t

contain any duplicate message.


Please advise.



I think the issue here is "what makes a message a duplicate". I

suspect, although I don't know without examining the code, that a

duplicate is determined by the Message-ID header. Have a look at the

source of the messages and you'll be able to see if the Message-IDs are

identical.

[Evolution] How to modify the outgoing email method

[Stefan Monnier]

I need to change the outgoing method of an IMAP account:
until recently email was sent via Sendmail, but now I have to use
an authenticated SMTP connection instead.

When creating a new account I can choose IMAP and then SMTP and all
works fine, but I don't see any way to modify the existing IMAP+Sendmail
account to an IMAP+SMTP one.

Of course, I can create a new account and then delete the old one, but
then I need to recreate manually the config I used for the previous
account, and it'll have to re-download all the messages, so I'd really
prefer to avoid this.

I'm using the `evolution` package that comes with Debian (`testing` on
some machines and `stable` on others),
