Hello!
I know this is border-line ms propaganda, but what do you think about
scripting support in Evolution?
I do not think of scripting as javascript in mails like Outlook does.
What I mean is some features of Evolution would trigger events to which
user can hook let say python script. Also, fo
I think this would be kinda cool. Not sure if it could potentially cause
security problems though? I think that this is probably the biggest
reason for all the Outlook viruses out there for example.
Btw, this is kind of already possible via CORBA interfaces, although

I think you did not understand what I said.
I do not want scripts to be part of e-mail such as what Outlook does. I
want to be able to have certain events of Outlook to call scripts. If
this is a security problem, then Evolution is A BIG SECURITY THREAT!

I would love to see this.
Despite what others are saying, you can't just use the corba interfaces
for this. Despite the fact the mailer just doens't have them, there
