Search for CAMEL_MESSAGE_INFO_USER_FLAGS and uses of mi->user_flags in Camel (better search for "->user_flags" as that mi part is sometimes called info and sometimes with a bunch of casting around it called mi). In camel-imap-folder.c you can take an example from functions like flags_to_label. I guess you'll need to convert your user_flags to custom IMAP flags somehow. Not sure how easy that is. You can also add new tags (user_tags), which is similar to how user_flags work in Camel. It looks like those are already stored remotely. I think tags define the colour of the rows in your summary view (Important, Personal, Work, etc etc). You'll have to write ui pieces for this too, in Evolution, of course. -- Philip Van Hoof, software developer home: me at pvanhoof dot be gnome: pvanhoof at gnome dot org http://www.pvanhoof.be/blog _______________________________________________ Evolution-hackers mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers
