I have been researching how to setup Evolution as the default mail handler for Konqueror and I've been half successful. Here is what I have so far.
Open control panel, go to network, then email and put this line in as the mail handler /usr/bin/evolution mailto:%t Now. This works just fine, it opens a compose box with the senders address in the TO field. Now comes the problem. I guess the best way I can explain these weirdness things is by showing you the lines I use, and what happens. /usr/bin/evolution mailto:%t?subject=%s This passes the TO field correctly, but the subject line is blank. /usr/bin/evolution mailto:%s This passes the subject into the TO field, which means %s is working. /usr/bin/evolution mailto:%s?subject=%t This does NOT pass the subject into the to field (Why? It did in the above line.) And passes the To variable (%t) to the subject line as it should have. It looks to me like something is broken with the Evolution command line for accepting variables from KDE somehow. I've seen A LOT of people ask about this problem, but no one has ever explained just what the problem was. Once they got the %t working, they stopped looking. And thus I think this bug has gone unnoticed. This is my 1st post to the evolution lists, so I don't know where to send bug reports but I figured this is a good a place to start as any. _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
