[Evolution-hackers] Another Thursday, another bugday...
It's Thursday again, sure. As we are closer and closer to Evolution 2.0 (and then to branching so we can add new features) each forgotten bug or wishlist report can hide a future defect or drop what could be a nice feature. So help us giving the final push into 2.0 and outline 2.1 and future releases by having some fun with us in the weekly bug hunt. As usual, we'll be waiting for you with a healthy dose of reports to visit, from 9:00 to 19:00 US/Central (1500 GMT to 0100 GMT next day) on irc.gnome.org #evolution. -- Gerardo Marin Novel QA Engineer ___ evolution-hackers maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers

[Evolution] 1.4.6 to 1.5 Migration Experiance
Just wanted to post my experiances in transition from stable 1.4.6 to 1.5. I had a lot of little issues with SuSe 9.0 and figured I would try jumping to 9.1 before I started complaining. Nothing major but things that make life with Linux less then elegant. During that process I found the OS to be much more stable and user friendly. (On a side note SuSe's network configuration interface is still broken). I loved red-carpet and also needed it to do the Evolution pieces so I used it right away to get things loaded for mail. I figured I would try 1.5 to see how it did. A couple of my notes and comments. 1) Install was great. red-carpet realy helps out that process. 2) Post install it took me only a few minutes to find out how to import all my 1.4.6 mail (copy of my old hard drives /home/'username'/evolution direcotry)into 1.5. evolution-1.5 --force-migrate. This imported all my mail but did not import my mail server settings and preferances. I remember their being a post about this but could not find it. I would recommend their be some kind of migrationn how-to posted. When 1.4.6 to 2.x goes live. Maybe even a wizard from red-carpet? 3) The new interface is very nice. I would like the flexability to shrink the bottom left buttons (Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Tasks, Exchange) as I have a lot of mailbxes I need to see open and all the side space I can get is a help when I have to sort emails. 4) Spell checking does not work again. I had this issue with 1.4.6 and it was an issue of needing aspell-en which red-carpet did not install but even once I found my old email on that and installed it, it still does not work. evolution1.5-1.5.91.0.200407250732-0.snap.ximian.9.1 evolution-data-server-0.0.96.0.200407250732-0.snap.ximian.9.1 libjasper-1.700.5-58 aspell-0.50.5-35 aspell-en-0.51.0-285 5) Their seem to still be some emails that show as having attachments that do do not alow me to 'detatch' them. The email size indicates their are attachments. I can forward it on an example if it is of use. I have not found a pattern to help give direction (pdf in the one case). 5) As for stability (their were some postings about issues with it on 9.1) I have had no issues.

RE: [Evolution] Mass import of contacts
My problem is that I'm not exporting them from Evolution, to then import them into another instance of Evolution. Instead, I've got the data in a raw format, and I'm trying to use my perl-foo to put the data into a mass export style .vcf card. Although I have different intentions, I investigated various possibilities for what you want recently. There is some commentary and links here: http://www.livejournal.com/users/preycor/80196.html I hope that between the various projects you'll be able to find what you need to do what you want. ___ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
