Re: [Evolution] Recovering cached mail
Mbox files are defined as rfc822 mail messages split by a blank line and a line starting with From_, which is F, r, o, m and a space. It's possible some of the lines in your mbox file don't follow this convention, and maybe that's why Evolution is having a hard time parsing it. For example, I know many times messages have a From:_ line, rather than a From_ line. The colon matters. So you may have to do some manual replacements, e.g. in vim you can do :%s/^From: /From /g. I hope that helps. From some quick googling there are some scripts that do guesses like this on the web. You can look for Maildir to mbox conversion.

The file command claims my concatenated file is indeed RFC 822 mail text, but when dumped into ~/.evolution/mail/local it doesn't show up in evolution (a directory appears but it doesn't have any emails in it). file run on files in ~/.evolution/mail/local indicates that they are ISO-8859 mail text, with very long lines so the question is now: How does one (easily!) convert an RFC 822 file to the appropriate evolution local directory format? Thanks for your input Andrew.

Something like: cd ~/.evolution/mail/exchange/acct/personal/sub/folders/Saved\ Items/ cat * cache-mbox mv cache-mbox ~/.evolution/mail/local/ It's possible that the rfc822 files do not end with a blank line. If that's so, the above may not work (mbox files are rfc822 messages separated by blank lines). When the cache-mbox file is in the evolution local mail directory, restarting evolution should get it to show up in your folder list.

[Evolution] Search boxes and UI meddling
Hi, I've been an Evolution user for a long time. The main reason I use Evolution is for its search/indexing features, since I have huge mail boxes and like to be able to search through them quickly. In recent versions of Evolution (I guess beyond 2.7, I'm using 2.8.1) the Search Box at the top of the message view was redesigned. I think this redesign was actually a step backward, and would like to know if other people have raised this concern. Aside from the silliness that the box is just too small, I don't understand why it seems to make sense to have a click on the tiny icon of a magnifying glass change in what part of a message you are searching, and to click a paint brush to clear the message (you may tell me that's a broom, but at that size, it's a paint brush). When I am searching within a message, I don't even know I am because the gray text for Message contains only appears when my search query is empty. Considering these searches are sticky to the folder I'm in, I may very well return back to a folder I previously searched for dinner and not know whether I search the subject/sender or the message itself, unless I click that silly magnifying glass again. I also don't get why the Show pull down exists. I think it would make more sense if that Show pull down showed _your_ saved searches, rather than some hard coded ones some other developer thought I'd find useful. I don't even use labels (and why should I, Evolution doesn't even let me customize them), but even so in the Show menu I have not one but six options related to labels. Likewise, I don't use Evolution's built-in Junk mail filtering (I use spam assassin externally since for some reason it's much faster that way), and have another wasted option there for Messages Not Junk. Less than half the options are therefore even usable by me, but I can't get rid of them and what's even more frustrating is that any of them could be emulated by a Saved Search, which _don't_ show up there. Does anyone else agree with me as to the silliness of these UI redesigns? I hate to be a whiner and if I had more than a few moments I'd scratch the itches myself, but I really would like to know what inspired these steps backward, and see if there is any agreement about undoing them.

Re: [Evolution] Search boxes and UI meddling
Totally agree. I'm nervous every time I search. Should I use the Search menu, or the Search box? Do they do the same thing or not? What about Advanced Search? Is it going to make me give a name to save the search or can I use it just once? etc. etc. The whole thing needs to be rethought IMHO.

If I do use a saved search from Search - 1. My Saved Search, it doesn't actually get applied unless I go into the search box, press enter so that the Advanced Search dialog comes up with my saved search, and then press OK. How annoying. Will file a bug about this when I get a moment, don't know if it has to do with some stale state in my .evolution folder. The whole thing needs to be rethought IMHO. I think the whole thing needs to be REALLY rethought. Evo's mailer has some real design innovations, but at the core of an e-mail application is search. E-mail applications need to have two main use cases in mind: 1. Receiving and reading NEW mail (which Evo does decently well, but still not optimally) 2. Searching OLD mail (which Evo used to do exceptionally well, but now does abysmally) I want a mailer with great search capabilities, so I can track down that JetBlue receipt for a flight I booked three months ago, or find an e-mail my friend sent me 6 months ago but that I never got around to replying to. I would also really push for some standard query language capabilities in Evo. I'd like to be able to type unread messages containing 'Andrew' in a search box (with shortcuts, like unread contain 'Andrew'), rather than having to create a search called Unread, creating the message is unread condition, and then filtering those based on message contains 'Andrew'. Sometimes, a GUI isn't the most usable UI. Evo also needs to get more keyboard friendly. What happened to our UNIX roots? BTW, I didn't even realize the little magnifying glass was clickable! Its location makes it functionally invisible and it lacks what the CHI people call affordance. Evo gets affordance better than most other applications for most things. But this search box redesign definitely ruins affordance, as you say. I know Evo's designers/hackers don't like to see themselves in competition with Gmail, but... we really need to start looking at what works.

[Evolution] Evolution sometimes hides my emails
For some reason, every now and again evolution (2.2.1) clears out my inbox, presenting me with a blank space, where there should be lots of messages. They have not been actually deleted (if I use MS web exchange, I'll get them); it's just that evolution, for some reason, won't display them. It does, however, display all messages received since hiding the others. How do I get the others back? They are there on the server, but for some reason I can't access them. Sometimes I can simply quit and restart evolution, and there they all are again; other times if I quit evolution I can't restart it (as I have mentioned in previous postings).
