hi, Thomas, thanks for your mail spool solution - this sounds really good. I try to set this up...
Pete and Stephan, for your information: I used the process described here: https://answers.launchpad.net/evolution/+question/10608 I know its not the safe way, but it worked. Maybe i setup sendmail / mutt / .. and do not use evolution for this purpose. in the past i spare all the configuration of the tools. Thank you all for your support, have a nice weekend. tobi Freitag, den 06.09.2013, 02:16 +0200 schrieb Thomas Mittelstaedt: > Am Donnerstag, den 05.09.2013, 09:59 +0200 schrieb Stephan Skrodzki: > > Hello Tobias, > > > > although I do not know if this is possible at all with evolution.
