Hi there, I want to know if somebody is taking a look at support for Sieve serverside IMAP filtering scripts in Evolution and/or if it's perhaps already supported at this moment in a development branch.
If nobody is actually taking a look at support for this scripting language I am planning to slowly start trying to get 'something' working in Evolution (like, for example, a simple texteditor widget inside evolution to edit the activated Sieve script and to submit it to for example a timsieved in cyrus. Later I would like to build a GUI like mulberry has or integrate the filter-gui with the current filter-gui of Evolution or .. a convertor to convert evolution XML-filter scripts to Sieve-scripts. My hopes are to develop this using C# but I already asked Miguel about the state of C# 'scripting' in Evolution and he told me that it is not yet possible. Is it worth waiting for this support? If at this moment nobody is doing Sieve support, are there others interested in developing this? Should we form a group or should I perhaps better wait for the Ximian folks to get this sieve support started? If I am going to do this, what branch of evolution should I target? Where should I start? Where can I learn and where can I find examples of Evolution add-ons or what is important for me to know about the code of Evolution before I start? (I don't have much experience with the code of Evolution but I do have enough experience with Bonobo, C, the GTK+ API, Gtk-Sharp and C#, ... and I know that I can swallow code of larger applications like Evolution) -- Philip Van Hoof, Software Developer @ Cronos home: me at freax dot org work: Philip dot VanHoof at cronos dot be http://www.freax.be, http://www.freax.eu.org _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
