Hi I'm using Evo with exchange since Ximian released connector as GPL, any way here is some point maybe someone can help me or it can be fixed in the next release :
1. if you open a new compose and write the emails that you want to send the message to them, evolution will hang for few seconds (to get the full name from GAL I think), this issue is there from the beginning and anyway it's much faster with version 2.4 but it's still there so my question is, why don't we make it like outlook, the user write the names then he click in a "check" button so evolution after that go to GAL and get the names 2. if you write names in compose window and then write click in the name, you will not get any information about the user (not like in outlook) it's will be nice to get some information , like the name or the phone number 3. if you write names in compose window and write click you will find "Edit" option in the popup menu (if I recall it's edit .... something"), anyway if you select it , evolution will hang and you have to kill it 4. no simple way to move the names from one field to another , for example if you write someone in "To:" file and then you want to move it to "Cc:" you have to remove it and add it again in "Cc:" , no way to just copy and past (remember I'm talking about exchange) 5. Still no notification window when you receive a new mail (you have to check evolution from time to time) 6. if you move a message from exchange to local inbox , evo will detect it as new mail and it will generate a D-Bus message about new mail and also it will play the new mail alarm (sound), this is also if you send a message , it will detect the Sent mail as new mail 7. if you move a message from exchange to local, it will keep a copy of it in the exchange "Deleted item" 8. still no way to use or read the distribution list mails 9. (This one no for exchange only) the compose window, in Evo 2.4 you can move the tool bar from the top to the right or the left or even to the bottom, this is very nice , but after you open a new compose, it will not remember the last position so it will open it in the top !! 10. if you forward a message you will get "[ Fwd: bla bla bla ]" in the subject , my question is why the "[ ]" !! I mean we don't see it any other mail client use [ ] in the subject 11. The D-Bus message when there is a new mail is useless , it will only send the message url, I think we need to send the mail subject,From,first few line from the message. this a list of what I remember, if you need any help in any of them (debug code, recompile....) please let me Note: I'm using Linux Gentoo Gnome 2.12 Evolution 2.3 Kernel 2.6.12 -- Best Regards, -------------------- -*- If Linux doesn't have the solution, you have the wrong problem -*- _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
