[Evolution] Sorting Levels on Message list

2017-01-02 Thread Emre Erenoglu
Hi and happy new year to all!

I have an issue in Evo 3.22.3.  Sometimes, I need to find a mail from
someone, but I don't know how to search exactly, so I need to scan through
the messages from that person on date order.

So I click date on the list bar, then all messages are sorted by Date. This
is fine and as expected.
Then I click Sender name, and all messages are sorted by the Sender Name,
but this time, the date sort is lost.
What I would expect is Evo to sort by Name and also keep the date order for
messages from that Name. Outlook behaves like this as an example, so that
you can scan through the list of emails from that person by date order and
maybe find the one you're looking for, if you know approximately the month,
etc.

So if Evo could keep the last two sorting selections in mind, it would be
really good.

Creating a search folder each time I do this is not an option as it's not
practical in my view.

Thanks,
Emre

Still didn't have time to create the bug report, but just wanted to note
that I disabled the "send using outbox" in settings. Now I face the issue
much less, although sometimes the send dialog complains that it can't
succeed, which I click retry and it's OK.

I do not think connection timeout is set a ms level, I'm sure it's some
seconds on server and the error is not really due to a real timeout. My
timeout setting in account is 20 secs, but the error is immediate, it's not
due to some activity, which opens a connection, gets some data but cant'
finish.

I also have "listen for server change notifications". Could you give a hint
on how I can modify the automatic updates? (or simultaneous kept open
connections to EWS server?)

Thanks,
Emre

[Evolution] EWS: No response: Connection terminated unexpectedly

2016-11-02 Thread Emre Erenoglu
Hi,

I'm on 3.22.2 and I'm very frequently getting this error stating "No
response: Connection terminated unexpectedly", when sending messages or
receiving stuff through EWS, but a subsequent try works without issues.

So where can be the issue? A socket timeout too short?  some inter-process
communication issue?

Anybody facing this?

Thanks,
Emre

[Evolution] Sidebar - Shrinking Further

2016-10-30 Thread Emre Erenoglu
Hi,

I'm on 3.22.2. The sidebar width can be shrunk to a certain limit and then
it does not get narrower. However, there are still lots of space between
most of the useful folder names & the border.

Is there a way to unblock this limitation so that the Sidebar can occupy
even less space? It is useful in small laptop displays.

I know of the F9 to show/hide the Sidebar, but some keyboards need an extra
step to reach F keys so not intuitive. I also like seeing my folders (at
least the favorite ones) at any given moment.

Outlook 2013 is doing a good job on this, you can collapse the Sidebar and
then it shows only the few favorites, ie Inbox, Sent, etc. folder names
with Vertical text.

Thanks,
Emre

Yes, but we have to assume that things go right most of the time, and when
things go wrong occasionally, we can always click the area to get more
details. (ie a separate log window, an expanding window, etc.)

In any case, while doing several things at once, we never have the chance
to read what's going on since they remain a fraction of a second in the
status area, or shunk down to a size which is unreadable if there are many
messages coming up.

Then I would wish it remained like that. Actually, the bottom bar of
current Evolution is, in my humble opinion, bombarding user with messages
(ie when downloading lots of messages), which are never really read.
I would rather opt for a status bar with:

Left Side: A single line with real status messages, Fetching Message
561/12544 for example. or like out look "all folders up to date", "folder
being updated". etc. Clicking it could bring a window with all log messages.

Right Side: a simple message on connectivity and last update time of that
account. Connected or Disconnected, Updated at 10:20. Connection Error.
Again, clicking it will reveal details.

If you have access to any Outlook, 2007 or later, I would recommend to have
a look at that. Never displays any workflow breaking, or screen estate
steling messages to the user on main widow, even if there are errors.

What I aimed for was a change in the evolution-activesync to use

OK, that would be an improvement. In other cases, although my
"Evolution-Activesync" displays errors (ie can't fetch message, can't
login, username/password error, etc.), actually there's no error and
clicking another message starts downloading and showing it. You can then
click the "error generating message" and it magically shows as well. Not
sure what's going on there. (looks like some kind of microsecond timeout
limit, etc.)

I'm not sure to agree with this. The error may be coming from the
Evolution-Activesync component (and sometimes from any account), but I do
not need to be bothered with this pressing a button each time. I know the
error and I expect it, since this account (and some IMAP) are not
accessible when I'm in corporate network. At least there could be a button
to "do not show again".

The error message in Evolution shall be less obtrusive and I think such
change, if accepted, is within Evolution main window.   A small icon and a
sticky text on the bottom right corner can highlight an error situation and
clicking it can reveal more details.

Yes, but given November 2016, this would mean I'll have 2016 and 2015
synced, more than I need :) I would need Nov 2015 onwards (ie 1 year

Thanks Patrick. OK, it's a pity as it made life simpler (ie mid 2016, you'd

[Evolution] Offline Messages Age in IMAP

2016-10-23 Thread Emre Erenoglu
Hi,

I have an IMAP server which I use for archiving purposes. It has folders
for each year. In Windows, I set Outlook and Thunderbird to synchronize
last 1 year of emails locally, so that I can access them while I'm
travelling/disconnected, etc. (ie in the office, not having access to the
archive server at home).

I can see in Evolution 3.22.2 that there's an option to "synchronize email
locally for offline operation" and folder settings which states "copy
folder content for offline operation", but I cannot find the setting to
limit the age of synced items. (I do not need 3-4 years of offline data,
last 1 year is sufficient).

Am I missing something or is this a new feature that's not implemented?

PS. Likewise, I wonder how Gmail is handled in Evolution in offline mode,
since it can have Gigabytes of data.

Thanks,
Emre

[Evolution] Muting Error Messages in main window

2016-10-23 Thread Emre Erenoglu
Hi,

I'm using Evolution 3.22.2 in up to date Arch system. I have several
accounts in it, and one of them is an Exchange Activesync account using
Evolution-Activesync from Gnome git.

This account is not accessible when I'm inside the corporate network.  So
each time Evolution starts, it gives me a message in the upper part of the
main window stating:
Failed to refresh folder "Account_Name : Inbox
The reported error was "GDBus.Error:org.meego.activesyncd.Error.Failed:
HTTP request failed: 7 - Connection terminated unexpectedly"."

How can I mute this error? I don't have to see it each time. Alternatively,
I would be just happy to see a disconnected icon on left folder list like
an IMAP account?

Thanks,
Emre

This looks like the "html is unnecessary in emails" discussion.

For sure there's a good reason why it exists, but that reason does not
seem to be valid in business world usage of email. In business world,
I get 40k emails a year on average, and never seen it.

If Evolution encourages usage in corporate world with MS Exchange
servers and the colleagues using Outlook, then we need to play with
the rules of Outlook. Outlook do not have such preceeding "--".

My two cents...

Btw, are you having similar issue when downloading a large message for

for offline use, do you get new ones at least on the message list? Can
you open them if you click on them? Or does everything wait until the

 Although you're right that Evo in Ubuntu 15.04 is only one version
 behind the latest, it's misleading because Evo only made that one
 release in the last year.

 The Evo currently available in Ubuntu has a number of known and
 already-fixed bugs, unfortunately, even though it's the latest 3.12
 version.

The thing is that 3.16 has webkit composer (proper html editing) and more
enhanced EWS support than 3.12. For my use case, I use evolution as its the
best and proper Exchange Server supporting client out there, and 3.16 is
the minimum I can accept due to those 2 reasons above.

 Hi,

 I'm often noticed - particularly on this list, that my Evolution

 with Precise and it will doggonit stay as long as Precise stays or I'll
 find a safe way to do, what Emre Erenoglu does). But what is the
 (Ubuntu) procedure for that ?

Hi Tom,

If you are not experienced in compiling stuff, I strongly recommend you to
upgrade to Ubuntu 15.04 and then simply add the PPA I've given to use 3.16
which is pretty OK.

If you are adventurous and don't mind to mess up your system with many dev
packages etc, then I think you can do the following (roughly!)

The problem is to setup initial build environment. Then each new release,
if it still is compatible with the system Gnome libs, compiles easily.

Here's what I do, but I may be missing steps since it's been a few months
since I setup last build environment :

0) make sure you use Ubuntu 15.04, enable source pancake repositories. This
below procedure may need updated library packages in the gnome3 PPA, I
don't remember, so it may be needed to add that PPA first as well.
1) apt-get install build-essential
2) apt-get build-dep evolution-data-server
This command will install all development packages needed for compiling
evolution data server, which is the 1st package we need. (there will be
some missing and some outdated!)
3) download and extract latest stable evolution data server. cd into that
directory
4) run  ./autogen.sh
5) run ./configure --help and check options. I use --prefix /usr/local
(unnecessary since it's the default) and some other options to disable some
unused features (for my use case)
6) at this stage, you will probably have errors. You need to read and fix
them. You may be missing auto tools packages, other SW needed for
compilations, some libraries, or some library may be too old.
7) fix above by searching Google, installing packages, finding newer
version of packages (Ie from next Ubuntu of Debian release) or installing
them by manually compiling. (can create system instability)
8) re run configure with parameters and fix more problems that come up,
until configure succeeds
9) run make
10) run make install

At this point, you will have evolution-data-server installed probably at
/usr/local.

Do the same for evolution source file and then evolution-ews source file.
Evolution is equally difficult and evolution-ews is easy.

Then you have latest version installed. Congrats!  Try to run it and see if
it works.

In next update, download sources and try again. Newer release may render
your build environment insufficient to compile again. There can be new or
newer libraries needed, etc. So at some point you may need to upgrade to
Kubuntu 15.10 or 16.04 for example to make your Evolution compile again.

Not that I use Kubuntu so my desktop environment is KDE. So I don't mind
breaking Gnome libraries since the only Gnome app I use is Evolution.

Here's the script I sometimes use to automate the git master
compilation once everything compiles fine. As it does not do any error
checking,it can render your evolution unusable as it may write
unworkable files over working version, despite errors happening on an
earlier compile command. So use it just as a guidance and do things
manually if you're really want to try. (PS I use it for bug testing if
a developer patches a bug)

Ths  script resides in ~/evo and run inside that directory:

#rm *.zip
### below commands download git master, but I recommend only stable releases.
#wget https://git.gnome.org/browse/evolution/snapshot/evolution-master.zip
#wget 
https://git.gnome.org/browse/evolution-data-server/snapshot/evolution-data-server-master.zip
#wget 
https://git.gnome.org/browse/evolution-ews/snapshot/evolution-ews-master.zip
#unzip -o ./evolution-data-server-master.zip
#unzip -o ./evolution-master.zip
#unzip -o ./evolution-ews-master.zip
#cd evolution-data-server-master
### below autogen also configures evolution-data-server without gnome
and ubuntu online accounts (since I only use exchange), without ipv6,
without weather, with openldap support, without examples
#./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr/local --disable-goa --disable-uoa
--enable-ipv6=no --disable-weather --with-openldap --disable-examples
#make
#sudo make install
#cd ../evolution-master
### the below command configures evolution without autoar as I could
not get it to work, and without spamassassin, but I have bogofilter in
my packages so it compiles with bogofilter
#./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr/local --enable-gnome-desktop
--disable-autoar --disable-gtk-doc-html --enable-smime --enable-nss
--disable-weather --without-help --with-openldap --enable-pst-import
--with-spamassassin=no
#make
#sudo make install
#cd ../evolution-ews-master
#./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr/local
#make
#sudo make install

All above lines are commented out with #, thus the script does not do
anything unless you remove the #.

 It's great to have this PPA, but Evo 3.16.0 has some pretty significant

 less stable than the latest 3.12.x.

 Also, last time I checked this PPA version doesn't allow you to install

Depends on use case as I said. 3.12 does not support Webkit2 HTML composing
so not possible to use it at work for me. 3.16 may have bugs but it has
less on EWS and does webkit2 composer.

Hi,

need to ask your admin which protocols are enabled on the server (you need

Note that Xubuntu 14.04 Evolution packages are pretty old, even ancient
(3.10 if I understand right). Even Vivid 15.04 has very old packages. So I
compile my own from time to time. Alternatively, if you upgrade to Vivid

wrote:


 I do appreciate the suggestion, however much my previous answer may have
 sounded brusque.  I just have reasons to think long and hard before

Hi Tim, if you could use Ubuntu Vivid or Utopic, you can use the following
PPA:
https://launchpad.net/~fta/+archive/ubuntu/gnome3
I'm using it now.

Otherwise, when I used 14.04, I self compiled Evolution since I needed
webkit composer. To do it, you need to first
sudo apt-get build-dep evolution-data-server
to get all required dependencies.

You can then download any version you like for evolution-data-server,
evolution and evolution-ews (only if you use exchange) from the Evo github.
https://git.gnome.org/browse/evolution-data-server
https://git.gnome.org/browse/evolution
https://git.gnome.org/browse/evolution-ews

You can then extract them into a folder, and start trying to compile:

My Example for Evolution-Data-Server, run inside the extracted zip folder:
./autogen.sh
   ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --disable-goa --disable-uoa
--enable-ipv6=no --disable-weather --with-openldap --disable-examples

This may create some errors, also depending on the version you use. For
example, you can't compile 3.16 in 14.04 or even 15.04, since the
repository lacks the new version of libwbxml2 that Evo requires. So you'll
need to find it online, compile it and install it before proceeding to fix
other missing libraries. I think libwbxml2 was the only problem I faced for
15.04.

Then you can do
   make
and when it finishes, you can do checkinstall to install a packaged
version, or if you're fine to live without a package, you can simply do
   sudo make install
to install in /usr/local

Once the EDS installed, you can do the same for Evolution:
cd ../evolution-master
   ./autogen.sh
   ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --enable-gnome-desktop --disable-autoar
--disable-gtk-doc-html --enable-smime --enable-nss --disable-weather
--without-help --with-openldap --enable-pst-import --disable-spamassassin
   make
   sudo make install

and then the same for evolution-ews if you need it.

If you can get the 1st compilation right, then you can put all these into a
script and it would probably work fine until they change some library
version requirements or new libraries (like it happened on 3.16 for
libwbxml2, while it was fine for 3.13.x)

Let me know how it goes,

If you need your email to be secure, you can sign it. The topic of such

 Evo 3.12.7, KDE 4.14 on openSUSE 13.2 x86_64


Hi Robert, in my case, it was stopping when it was connecting to a server
which did not have the minimum requirements (ie exch 2010), it appears that
our server farm has different versions of Exch Servers. So I edited the
/etc/hosts to point to a server which is for sure Exchange 2010.

Another issue I faced is that it does not actually stop, but the EWS
message download is extremely slow, ie takes 15+ minutes to download a
10meg email) and during this timeframe, the EWS new message notifications
stop as well.

See if your problem could be related to those. I've opened bug reports

Hi, this is a known issue and you can find some bug reports on this if you
search the evolution bugzilla. This is due to the gtkhtml element used in
earlier Evolution versions. There's a new webkit based editor in the last
versions (ie 3.13.8). Although this works well, we are generally
recommended by developers to wait for 3.14 series. If you know how to
compile Evolution yourself, you can give it a try.

While waiting for 3.14 to be released and your distro to catch up with it,
if this is very important for you, I recommend you stick with Thunderbird
(imap) + EWS Calendar add-on (
https://github.com/Ericsson/exchangecalendar/releases), or Thunderbird with
Exquilla (https://exquilla.zendesk.com/home) for full EWS access to
Exchange Server.

[Evolution] Issue with Address Lookup Collection with EWS

2014-06-25 Thread Emre Erenoglu
Hi,

I'm using Evolution with EWS self compiled on 22/06/2014.

It looks like the address collection when sending email does not work with
EWS. I don't see any collected addresses although I've sent many mails.

I've recognized this due to following issues on address lookup:
1) It takes too long time, even if cache locally is selected in account
settings
2) Sometimes it does not return any value
3) If you search by name, it does not return anything, surname usually works

Note that this GAL has 6 contacts inside.

Yes, this is what it's said about ext, but i don't believe in it much. Any

For example, my ext4 data partition, fsck states:

 Oh! This is big news. I never knew this sort of thing could be done. Ok,
 so my .evolution in my /home has over 3 GB of mail in it. Is this going
 to be able to be done? You mentioned that over 500 MB, Gmail may
 throttle my connection.


Yep, so it can take a week or so, if you use Gmail. There can be other mail
providers around which may not have such limitations. (ie your ISP?). Also
note that you could possibly setup your own IMAP server on this PC or any
other PC in your local area network. (I have Dovecot running on my
localhost keeping my mail archives for example)...


 And you mention trying one mail at a time. My outbox has 15,000 mails in
 it. Am I going to be able to transfer large amounts like this by the
 method discussed?


It's just to make sure it works. Once you see it works properly, you can
copy 100 or 100s of mails at once, or even try to copy a whole folder with
15000 mails. This will also be related to the 500meg cap if you use Gmail,
your connection speed to the IMAP Server, etc. It will take considerable
time if you use something out of your own PC.


 When I put my evo mail into that new folder I've created, is it getting
 mailed to the gmail account, or uploaded. I do not want something
 getting mailed and thereby new sets of headers etc attached to it.


No, it's uploaded to the IMAP server, nothing is mailed.

 Thanks. I have looked at it some more. The weird thing is that I can not

Yes, this isnt an evolution problem if you can't telnet. I recommend trying
with another computer and if it also doesn't work then the problem is
probably somewhere between you and the server, the routing tables might be
wrong or missing return path for packets, there can be a firewall blocking
port 583, etc. etc.

 xdg-open ~/whatever.eml allows you to import emails into Evolution.

 Hi,
 I just committed a change [1] for 3.11.91+ which makes it slightly
 easier to pile columns for sorting directly from the view, instead of
 visiting the subdialog with customize of sorting options.

 Basically, the commit lets you hold a Ctrl key, which will, instead of
 clearing the whole sorting and adding the only column you click the
 header on, add the column into the sorting as the first sort criterion.
 If you hold also a Shift key (together with the Ctrl), then the column
 is added as the last sorting criterion. Clicking on a column header
 which is already used for sorting doesn't change the behaviour, the sort
 order is simply flipped, regardless Ctrl/Shift keys being pressed or
 not.


Hi Milan, thanks a lot for this. I'll re-compile master probably during
weekend and then let you know how it goes.

Would it be possible also the following scenario:
- Clicking the sender column will automatically select date as the 2nd
level sort. The 2nd level sort will be according to its last state (ie
either recent to old or old to recent), or if this is too complicated, can
be just from recent to old.

I know your new function can do the above already, this is just to avoid a
key press since sorting by sender name and then by date is something I
use very frequently in Outlook (I know many of my colleagues also use it
when trying to quickly find a mail from a given person).

 Not sure about the correct semantics here. What if the user has already
 sorted by Subject and then wants to sort by sender? Under your proposal,
 the Subject sorting could easily be lost. To avoid that, Evo would need
 to remember which sort fields had already been selected by the user, and
 in which order (all of this per folder of course). Sounds rather complex
 but I haven't thought through all the implications.


Well, this is how Outlook works, so one could look from it if you have in
hand somewhere :)

For my use case, I nearly never sort by Subject. So this function shall
only work when the mailing list current sort is received date and if the
user clicks sender column. Result will be: mails are sorted by sender
with decending or ascending 2nd level sort. So you will see, from each
sender, mails from recent ones towards old ones.

In outlook, what we did is, you sort your list by received date for daily
work. If you need to find any mail from a person,
1) you click sender with mouse, Outlook sorts by sender, then by ascending
or descenting received date depending on the original received date sort
2) you then click the 1st letter of sender's surname and Outlook jumps to
the first message from this sender.
3) Consequent clicks to the same sender surname 1st letter will move one by
one on the messages from the sender.
4) if there are multiple sender names starting with same letter, then
pressing a 2nd letter would move you to that sender.

For example, if you have a sender with surname Eric and Emre, first click
to E will move to Emre, second click will move to Eric.

After step 1, you don't need to move your hand to mouse..

PS. If this is a good idea, I can check exactly how it works in Outlook.

Hi Thomas,

I installed a virtual Kubuntu 14.04 yesterday and managed to build Evo from

So I think it will be possible to use 3.12 in Kubuntu 14.04 without much

[Evolution] EWS: Calendar moving my appointments 30 minutes forward?

2014-02-19 Thread Emre Erenoglu
Hi,

This is on Kubuntu 13.10, jhbuild built Evo 3.11.90 webkit-composer branch
which was repo rebased 13 days ago.  Account is exchange with evolution-ews.

I just recognized that for the meetings I created, Evolution pushes it 30
minutes later.  My system timezone is: Asia/Dubai, I tried setting it
manually in Evolution, no change.

When I create appointment, say at 15:00, it appears at 15:00, then 3-4
seconds later, it moves to 15:30. Basically, evolution sets the appointment
on Tehran time zone, rather than the selected Dubai time zone. (ie it sets
is 15:00 Tehran time rather than Dubai time)

Any hints why this can be?

[Evolution] Mail List Sorting Issue

2014-02-19 Thread Emre Erenoglu
Hi,

To find a certain mail in my mailbox or archive, for which I know the
sender but not a keyword from subject line, I sometimes
1)click the TO column header,
2) click any message and press the first letter of the surname of the sender
3) this jumps me to the first message related to this person
So far so good, Outlook-like experience. Now the confusion starts.
My mailbox is normally sorted by date, recent first. When I click TO
column to sort by surname, it sorts by surname but looses the 2nd level
sort by date.

I expect the sorting to be 1st based on surname then 2nd within the same
surname to be sorted by date. In my Evolution 3.11.90 compiled with jhbuild
(webkit-composer master branch, rebased 13 days ago), 2nd level sorting by
date is not working. MEssages are shown in mixed order.

This makes my life very difficult, since I can approximately remember when
a message was sent, but then I have to make a linear search with my eyes to
find the right one, impossible when you have 10s of messages from same
person.

Is this a bug? Shall I file a report?

 quasi impossible, because it would take too much time, if you have large

Thanks Ralf for your comment, although it made me depressed :)  I have too
many contacts with possibility of such search. I already made some search

make a search folder for each :(

I think there's a plan to re-write the search function in Evo with GSoC. I

 Why don't you just use the search bar - the default is to search
 Subjects or Addresses Contains so will pick up the name in the To:
 header, or if that's too nebulous, you could select Recipients
 contain. Whichever, the list will still be sorted by date.


Yes, that's fine, but I can still have too many mails related to this
person and still need the date sorting.  If I click DATE header, then I
will lose the focus on mails coming from this person, if I click the TO,
then the 2nd level date sort is lost.

What works well in TB is that i can search from:person in the quick search
bar using gmailui, so it's fine. This doesn't work that way in Evo yet, so
if I just write a name, I get all sorts of messages that includes this
person, from, to, cc, etc. etc.

 Right-click the message list header bar, select Customize Current View
 and you can tailor your sorting options however you want.  You'll have
 to excuse the antiquated UI, though.  It's ancient.

 After that, if you want you can do View - Current View - Save Custom

Matthew, thanks for this advice. Well, I must admit this is part of the
puzzle, as the save custom view function does not work in my jhbuild Evo.
It does not bring any dialogs in front of me. This may be a bug at master
or just my webkit-composer branch problem or problem with compilation,
that's why I did not mention it.

In any case, this is still not intuitive. Maybe a shortcut key combination
or buttons in taskbar to switch faster between view modes could be better.
(changing view modes needs 2 mouse moves two clicks at least.)

 I'm not exactly sure how GLib's network monitoring works.  The docs only

 with or without NetworkManager installed.

 GLib also lets us test reachability of specific host names, so we can
 more gracefully handle scenarios like a disconnected VPN or switching
 WiFi networks.  Evolution 3.12 will take full advantage of this.


Matthew, it may not be related, but when I was compiling the master with

Thanks Andre. I will try this. But how can evolution launch a window for a

Of course, my sistem is very fragile due to jhbuild environment, evolution
can't launch alone and needs jhbuild run dbus-launch --exit-with-session

Not sure how I can add this to a MIME type as an open command.

[Evolution] Best Distribution to self compile master?

2014-02-18 Thread Emre Erenoglu
Hi,

I'm using Ubuntu 13.10. Using Evolution self compiled master built by
jhbuild is a bit problematic, due to dbus, etc and the too many packages it
pulls through when building Evo.
Therefore, I can give a try to different distributions.

Is there a distribution that carries the latest versions of dependencies of
Evo 3.12 (incl webkit), so that I can self-compile it without jhbuild? I
shall be forced to replace only few system packages to prevent instability
of the base system.

 I do most of my Evolution development on Debian Stable, cherry-picking
 newer libraries as needed from Debian Testing, and occasionally build
 (optional) bleeding-edge dependencies straight from git.

 I don't use jhbuild, I install built source code to a prefix under my
 home directory so as not to affect system stability, and I run the EDS
 D-Bus services manually from that install prefix.


Thanks Matthew for your time, hope you would have little more time to
respond to the below as well :)

I tried this in Ubuntu but it started complaining about tons of
dependencies to replace in the system, starting from Gnome3 related
packages, webkit, fontconfig, glib, gnutls, gobject-introspection,
gstreamer, gtk+, gvfs, libnotify, libsoup, librest, pango, polkit, etc.
 etc.  Maybe these are not all needed...

However, your message gave me new energy to try again :)  Maybe I can start
on a beta Ubuntu 14.04 and try over there.

So do I understand right that you configure stuff with;
configure --prefix=$HOME/local  (for example), and then add built library
paths to LD_LIBRARY_PATH before launching evo?
Also, how do you launch the ESD D-Bus services manually?

Optionally, a link can replace the removed attachment or the text
   file replacing the attachment can contain the location.
  What if the location is changed by the user?

 +1 I am *very* skeptical of `link` scenarios.  My experience is that
 this falls apart and creates inconsistent behavior rather quickly.


Well, I've been using this for years in Windows Outlook and I did not face
any issues. Worst case could be that I archive a mail and as well as the
disk location if a project (or subject) becomes too old, or rarely I may do
a re-shuffling of my files in a project but then I'm aware that I've
changed something. The link at least gives me a piece of info that the
removed attachment notice doesn't give: where it was saved before. Knowing
where it was saved before will then help me find its new location easily
without making another step to search. Searching is anyway always possible.

So by adding a link or a pointer to the saved location inside the text, you
lose nothing, but gain an info which will be useful in 90% of the cases (in
my cases at least).

Anyway this link aspect is not the main subject of the request, it's a
bonus. A detach function is priority to gain some seconds from my life and
less strain on my fingers of saving extra mouse clicks  :)

PS. I don't use Evo for mailing lists or technical mails, I'm pure business
user and I deal with ~150 mails from many different subjects everyday from
many countries. My mailbox (and archives) can fill up very quickly if I
don't do detaching/deleting attachments.

Br,
Emre

[Evolution] ews - dismissing calendar reminder is not asynchronus

2014-02-14 Thread Emre Erenoglu
Hi,

I'm dismissing a reminder for a calendar meeting. The dismiss action takes
a few seconds. In outlook, it's instant. I guess this is something to do
with contacting the server for confirmation before the event is dismissed.

Can this be done async? Is the UI will dismiss it, then contact server in
the background.
a) things go well, event is also dismissed in the server, so far so good.
b) evolution cant' connect the server to dismiss, in this case:
   b1) keep the local state and do it once the server can be connected (ie
Outlook cached exchange mode)
   b2) just re-pop up the event

What do you think? Shall I open a bug report?

Hi Tomas. This is jhbuild environment on Ubuntu 13.10, maybe it's the
culprit? Evolution is also very unstable, crashing from time to time even

Last time, I saw this in console when it crashed:

nice catch. Let's wait then :)  But hope the crashes are not due to this.

[Evolution] How to Detach Attachments?

2014-02-11 Thread Emre Erenoglu
Hi,

I've seen the option to remove attachments in the menu which appears on
right click on the message. But this totally removes it without presenting
an option to save the attachments first.

So today, I have to 1) save attachment 2) remove attachment

Would there be a way to detach attachments, like save first and then
delete. Optionally, a link can replace the removed attachment or the text
file replacing the attachment can contain the location.

 Hi,
 int that case you compile recent evolution-data-server with not recent
 enough evolution checkout. I do not use jhbuild at all, so I do not know
 how it does its checkouts, but if there is some misconfiguration what to
 download, then you might fix it there.

 By the way, simple `make uninstall`  `make clean`/`make distclean` in
 evolution* folders should do the trick too, without actually rebuilding
 everything.

 In any case, the error you face is often caused by linking different
 version of sources, while evolution* core projects highly depend on
 up-to-date checkouts.


Thanks a lot Milan for your comment. Actually this sheds the light, as I'm
checking out the webkit-composer branch of evolution, since this jhbuild
environment is to test the webkit composer and feedback the developer upon
a bug report discussion.

I'll wait for him to re-base his branch, then it shall work I hope.

In the meantime, if you would have any idea which patch removes this issue
in the normal evolution branch, I could try to manually apply it to the
webkit-composer.

 Hi,
 usual problem with jhbuild is that it doesn't cleanup the $PREFIX on

 versions in $PREFIX. Just cleanup your $PREFIX and build from scratch,
 there is nothing wrong with the commit, as long as you use up-to-date
 evolution and other dependencies of the changed package
 (evolution-data-server in this case).


Hi Milan, now I tried to re-build again.

1) It got stuck at webkit at/after line CXX libANGLE.la , I broke the build
and re-started it, it worked this time. Hope no issues due to this.

2) Then I got an error at assembly instructions (still webkit), I could not
copy the exact error, but I search some websites earlier and it seems this
happens only on 32bit builds. I managed to workaround this issue by
replacing all : q(newValue) lines in WTF/wtf/Atomic.h with :
r(newValue), so replace r by q.

I think it's time to move to 64 bit system. I'll do with Ubuntu 14.04.

3) Then I got stuck on libNDP dependency for NetworkManager. It does not
exist in Ubuntu. I had to compile and install from source .

4) And finally hit the same issue where I stopped.

By the way, I'm not sure why you mention evolution-ews in the subject,

Mistake on my side, I was building evolution-ews but I did not recognize it
was pulling evolution as a dependency and the actual breakage is in
evolution indeed.

Strange indeed. I did it in my Kubuntu 13.10. I had no evolution installed
on this. It installed fine. Maybe there's an order if PPA is higher
priority or lower priority, or maybe you had remaining packages from 3.8
installation as Evolution would pull many dependencies.

When installed this way, it crashes at account setup for me, but on

it's simple. You would have to sometimes scroll 20 pages worth of

outlook and windows at work, so i have to play with the other
employees' rules :)

 Heh, heh, heh...  You're preaching to the choir!  I agree.

 But!  If I can't insert pictures in the middle of a message, and put
 little moving cuties in my sig line, and make the text different colors
 and sizes, then I can't be part of the Windows crowd!  They look down on
 me and make fun of me!


I work at a multi-national and Outlook is the norm. The norm of
Outlook is top posting, and it's OK since reading mails with bottom
posting  quotes are tough when they are 10s of messages on a given
subject. Sometims you're forwarded an email and need to go throught
the whole set of mails bottom up to understand the context as the
quoted parts not always cover everything.

HTML is also a must as there are multiple occasions where you want to
insert a picture and comment on it, or a table and make annotations or
comments over it as well. Many in-line replies carry different font 
color (Outlook does a good job of putting your name pick a good color
to differentiate your comments in someone else's mail.
Yes, there may be better methods to do all these things but tough to
convince so many people.

 Strange thing is, if I reply to the mail, or select to edit the text, the
 content is displayed in these windows. I really have no clue why.

Could it be a font rendering problem? Maybe you don't have those fonts
and somehow do not have substitute fonts as well?

Re: [Evolution] expression search / complex search phrase

2013-06-13 Thread Emre Erenoglu
Jun 13, 2013; 5:13am — by  Thomas Mittelstaedt

Why don't you use filters to filter your many emails in your huge INBOX,
assigning tags (labels) to them, moving them into different folders and
so on.
You find that under Edit-message Filters in the main menu.

Thanks Thomas for your proposal as well. Indeed, this type of working
is suitable for many people and some of my team are doing like this.
However, each deal with let's say around 10-20 proposals a year.

As of now, we've already made 100+ proposals, it will easily exceed
200+ by end of the year. One of them that we are about to sign a
contract has 942 messages including the ones in my archive. Making
~200+ folders per year is not sustainable and categorizing mails into
folders also take time if filters don't work (not everybody make a
proper subject line unfortunately).

That's why I've chosen not to use folders at all and I depend solely
on filter/search as I need it through the a daywork. It served me well
until today on Outlook  Thunderbird. As I'm now trying to move to
Evolution (looking forward to the webkit html composer which is the
last blocking point), I was checking if such search is possible in
Evolution as well.

I shall probably make a bug report  request, maybe someday it can get
implemented.

[Evolution] Fwd: expression search / complex search phrase

2013-06-12 Thread Emre Erenoglu
Hi,

I generally have 1500-2000 emails in my inbox before I archive them,
and as part of my daily email activity at work, I depend a lot on
email search.

I'm using Thunderbird  Outlook, what I do in Thunderbird is using the
GmailUI/ExpressionSearch add-on. With this add-on, I can do searches
like:
from:some_guy to:other_guy subject:topic1
and see only mails from some_guy sent to or cc other_guy under the
subject topic1.

some other time, I'm just using from:name subject:topic2 to search for
specific email subject coming from a specific person.

At the moment, evolution does not let me do this and forces me to
choose from a drop-down list with limited choice.

Is there some way to write such complex search phrase?

Note that it becomes much more critical when I do searches on my
localhost imap archive server, containing 15 to 25k messages per year.

Top menu,select search, advanced search, add whatever conditions you
wish.  If it's a search that you do often, then name it and save it for
later re-use.

Thanks Reid for your comment. So do I understand that this feature is
not supported yet and there's no such search possibility?  In this
case, maybe I shall put a bug report and ask for this feature?

Regarding your workaround, my work includes dealing with few hundred
people on a very large geopgraphic region with too many separate
topics (I'm working as a proposals director). making a specific saved
search does not seem possible due to the different search patterns I
use daily. I would end up with at least tens of them but still can't
address all as new ones will be added as we have new proposals to make
:)
The addon in Thunderbird is working very nice and quick for this function.

montana_evolution_u...@hardinmt.us wrote:
 I wonder about your answer.  The search function, as it was described by
 Reid Thompson, seems very flexible.  You can use just one condition, or
 add as many as you may need. If you think you may need to use the same
 search criteria again, you can name and save it.  If not, just use it
 the one time and discard it when it is finished.

 Although I think I understand your situation, I guess I don't quite
 understand your problem.  Could you elaborate?

My problem is in fact simple. The search function in Evolution in
itself is very good. But it is very slow to use and requires too many
mouse clicks and keyboard entries, hopping between fields  choosing
criteria  phrase. When you have to use it too many times, it is a
burden on time. Saving each search is also not an option as there are
too many possible combinations of searches I do daily.

If I could put that whole search criteria into the search/filter bar
on top of the message list, and see the result in the message list, it
would solve my problem.
using keyboard and putting your criteria is much faster:
from:emre to:bart subject:search  withattachment:yes or even shorter:
f:emre t:bart s:search wa:yes
and you'll see all mail from me to you with subject containing
search and which contains attachments.

Gmail uses the same mechanism as well as the GmailUI/Expressionsearch
add-on of Thunderbird.

This may also help to explain myself better:
