[Evolution] sync ignores categories
Hallo, sync with the new RC2 version of evolution worked generally fine. But "categories" are ignored in both directions. That leads to a question: How should sync work, if you have two or more categories in one entry? Palm only supports one category at a time. So I suppose that only the first category should be transferred. Regards Gerhard Schuck [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
[Evolution] no sync
Hi ! My laptop (as several laptops) has a sloow HD. I think that's why Evo is so slow: it does an fsync() or something like this when writing its mail, and this brings my computer to a halt during several seconds. As I know my laptop doesn't really need fsync() (even in case of power outage, it has batteries), could there be an option to turn it off ? I'm sure the speed gain would be tremendeous on configs like mine. KUTGW Xav ___ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution

This computer never had any PGP 2.6.x versions installed in any OS: so if Evo saw a PGP 2.6.x binary it was mistaken. However I checked to be sure some package did not sneak PGP 2.6.x in as a dependency or whatever and my system remains clean with just a single version of PGP 6.5.8i. In an effort to try your fix I went to the Evo account setup and changed the binary from PGP to other and then tried to change it back to /usr/bin/pgp. Evo refused to accept and retain the change to pgp! At this point the fun is definitely gone. PGP 6.5.8 is there, it works, and my copy of Evo denies it. Have no idea what caused this, but I not interested in playing anymore. Grabbed the pgp keyrings moved them into gnupg which is loaded by default on SuSE, some quick tweaking and Evo can again read encrypted messages. BTW Evo seems to remember the gnupg passphrase for the complete (pgp was iffy) and the signature report from gnupg appears to have better qualitative content than the previous PGP signature reports. -- Ralph Sanford - If your government does not trust you, [EMAIL PROTECTED] - should you trust your government?

In the folder > list, I see both sets of folders, ie, the (apparently) primary folders, and > the folders for my main IMAP account on the server. I recently did something similar (courier on local server). I like having all my mail in IMAP so I can use it from any client (e.g., when an Evolution build breaks I can still use Mozilla :-)) It sounds like you may be using Evolution to fetch your mail. I think you might prefer using fetchmail on the *server* to get your mail, instead of having Evolution do it on your workstation. Presumably your server is up 24/7, so you can have fetchmail periodically check for mail. You still want to keep all your accounts defined in Evolution so you can use them to send mail, but in mail settings you disable them so that Evolution does not fetch the mail from those accounts. The only one you keep enabled is the local IMAP server account. In addition, if you like, use maildrop or procmail to filter it to the correct folders. This is preferable to using a mail client's filtering because, just like IMAP, it's centralzed and does not have to be set up for each e-mail client. Using fetchmail and (in my case) maildrop, when I start up Evolution after coming home from work I have all my mail ready and waiting in the proper folders. Now, what I think would be *really* cool is a standard way of defining mail accounts that all/most mail clients understand. That way you could store your mail account definitions on a server, and when you try new mail clients you don't have to go through the drudgery of setting up a bunch of accounts each time. :-) ___ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution

Hi Jeff, Just downloaded RC2. RC2 does not allow me to use PGP 6.5.8 with evolution. It somehow detects version 2.6.x and won't let me use it. I don't have 2.6.x but I do have 6.5.8. What gives?

[Evolution] Find/Replaces crashes the editor when forwarding a message
I just submitted a bug report, but I thought I'd send it to the list too. In Evolution, Find/Replace crashes gnome-gtkhtml-editor. I am using CVS from about 11/17/01. Here's the scenario: I have an e-mail that I want to forward. After I click on Forward, I delete some text. Then I try to replace all of the >'s at the beginning of each line with nothing using Find/Replace. The first time I do it and select Replace All, it replaces the first one. The second time I do it, gnome-gtkhtml-editor crashes with the following backtrace: 0x408eb689 in wait4 () from /lib/libc.so.6 #0 0x408eb689 in wait4 () from /lib/libc.so.6 #1 0x4095c6ec in __check_rhosts_file () from /lib/libc.so.6 #2 0x405cbab6 in gnome_segv_handle (signum=11) at gnome-init.c:664 #3 0x40860128 in killpg () from /lib/libc.so.6 #4 0x400497b9 in remove_empty_and_merge (e=0x80b35a0, merge=1, left=0x0, right=0x0, c=0x80e8988) at htmlengine-edit-cut-and-paste.c:258 #5 0x4004a301 in insert_object (e=0x80b35a0, obj=0x813f240, len=0, position_after=346, level=1, dir=HTML_UNDO_UNDO, check=1) at htmlengine-edit-cut-and-paste.c:602 #6 0x4004a53b in html_engine_insert_object (e=0x80b35a0, o=0x813f240, len=0, level=1) at htmlengine-edit-cut-and-paste.c:695 #7 0x4004a59d in html_engine_paste_object (e=0x80b35a0, o=0x813f240, len=0) at htmlengine-edit-cut-and-paste.c:703 #8 0x4005c241 in replace (e=0x80b35a0) at htmlengine.c:4711 #9 0x4005c369 in html_engine_replace_do (e=0x80b35a0, answer=RQA_ReplaceAll) at htmlengine.c:4732 #10 0x406f7d21 in gtk_marshal_NONE__NONE (object=0x810e4e0, func=0x8064f90 , func_data=0x810fee0, args=0xbfffec90) at gtkmarshal.c:312 #11 0x4072a946 in gtk_handlers_run (handlers=0x80d2250, signal=0xbfffec30, object=0x810e4e0, params=0xbfffec90, after=0) at gtksignal.c:1917 #12 0x40729ca6 in gtk_signal_real_emit (object=0x810e4e0, signal_id=68, params=0xbfffec90) at gtksignal.c:1477 #13 0x40727ae0 in gtk_signal_emit (object=0x810e4e0, signal_id=68) at gtksignal.c:552 #14 0x406909dc in gtk_button_clicked (button=0x810e4e0) at gtkbutton.c:336 #15 0x4069212e in gtk_real_button_released (button=0x810e4e0) at gtkbutton.c:861 #16 0x406f7d21 in gtk_marshal_NONE__NONE (object=0x810e4e0, func=0x40692080 , func_data=0x0, args=0xb020) at gtkmarshal.c:312 #17 0x40729b32 in gtk_signal_real_emit (object=0x810e4e0, signal_id=67, params=0xb020) at gtksignal.c:1440 #18 0x40727ae0 in gtk_signal_emit (object=0x810e4e0, signal_id=67) at gtksignal.c:552 #19 0x4069090c in gtk_button_released (button=0x810e4e0) at gtkbutton.c:327 #20 0x40691a37 in gtk_button_button_release (widget=0x810e4e0, event=0x811b7b0) at gtkbutton.c:721 #21 0x406f7a2b in gtk_marshal_BOOL__POINTER (object=0x810e4e0, func=0x40691960 , func_data=0x0, args=0xb3c0) at gtkmarshal.c:28 #22 0x40729ce9 in gtk_signal_real_emit (object=0x810e4e0, signal_id=27, params=0xb3c0) at gtksignal.c:1492 #23 0x40727ae0 in gtk_signal_emit (object=0x810e4e0, signal_id=27) at gtksignal.c:552 #24 0x40761ff9 in gtk_widget_event (widget=0x810e4e0, event=0x811b7b0) at gtkwidget.c:2864 #25 0x406f7984 in gtk_propagate_event (widget=0x810e4e0, event=0x811b7b0) at gtkmain.c:1378 #26 0x406f69f5 in gtk_main_do_event (event=0x811b7b0) at gtkmain.c:818 #27 0x407adb4f in gdk_event_dispatch (source_data=0x0, current_time=0xb790, user_data=0x0) at gdkevents.c:2139 #28 0x40820390 in g_main_dispatch (dispatch_time=0xb790) at gmain.c:656 #29 0x4082096f in g_main_iterate (block=1, dispatch=1) at gmain.c:877 #30 0x40820b2b in g_main_run (loop=0x809b808) at gmain.c:935 #31 0x406f62b3 in gtk_main () at gtkmain.c:524 #32 0x403b8a0b in bonobo_main () at bonobo-main.c:284 #33 0x0805d41a in main (argc=3, argv=0xb884) at editor-control-factory.c:885 #34 0x4084f1f0 in __libc_start_main () from /lib/libc.so.6 #0 0x408eb689 in wait4 () from /lib/libc.so.6 No symbol table info available. #1 0x4095c6ec in __check_rhosts_file () from /lib/libc.so.6 No symbol table info available. #2 0x405cbab6 in gnome_segv_handle (signum=11) at gnome-init.c:664 664 eret = waitpid(pid, &estatus, 0); estatus = 134768424 in_segv = 1 pid = 0 #3 0x40860128 in killpg () from /lib/libc.so.6 No symbol table info available. #4 0x400497b9 in remove_empty_and_merge (e=0x80b35a0, merge=1, left=0x0, right=0x0, c=0x80e8988) at htmlengine-edit-cut-and-paste.c:258 in htmlengine-edit-cut-and-paste.c lo = (HTMLObject *) 0x80e8908 ro = (HTMLObject *) 0x813f240 prev = (HTMLObject *) 0x813f240 #5 0x4004a301 in insert_object (e=0x80b35a0, obj=0x813f240, len=0, position_after=346, level=1, dir=HTML_UNDO_UNDO, check=1) at htmlengine-edit-cut-and-paste.c:602 602 in htmlengine-edit-cut-and-paste.c orig = (HTMLCursor *) 0x80e8988 left = (GList *) 0x81265fc right = (GList *) 0x8126608 first = (GList *) 0x8126614 last = (GList *) 0x8126620 position_before = 135423508 level = 135170

[Evolution] Spell checking in SuSE
If you are using Evo in SuSE 7.2 and are getting tired of Red Carpet refusing to download the aspell and gnome-spell packages needed to get spell checking working in Evo try the following: Use Red Carpet to replace your newer pspell package with pspell 0.12.2-ximian.4 from the SuSE channel of Red Carpet. Red Carpet still won't load aspell or gnome-spell but now you are on the way. Go to ftp.ximian.com/pub/ximian-gnome/suse-72-i386 and grab the rpm's for aspell and gnome-spell. Use Yast1 to install aspell and gnome-spell; roughly the same as --force with your favourite rpm package except that it will automatically fire up Suseconfig for you. Now spell checking works in Evo (assuming that you have turned spell checking on in Gnome control centre). Slick. Just need to find a way to get English rather than American spelling. I have had this set up for several days now and the older version of pspell does not appear to cause any problems, except that Red Carpet wants to upgrade to the newer version of pspell. -- Ralph Sanford - If your government does not trust you, [EMAIL PROTECTED] - should you trust your government?

[Evolution] Filter related crash
Hi, all, In the past month, my copy of the Evolution has been crashing every time I fetch mail. And I've been sending some Bug Buddy reports to bugzilla. After I downloaded the RC2 today and I still see the crash, I started a little investigation. And here's what I've found out. 1. If I 'mv ~/evolution ~/evolution.old' and then start Evolution, the crash won't happen. A new ~/evolution folder will be created. 2. If I move the new ~/evolution folder out of the way and move the old ~/evolution folder back, and then start Evolution, the crash returns. 3. A noticeable difference between the two ~/evolution folders is that my old ~/evolution folder has some filters defined, while the new one obviously does not. 4. If I move the ~/evolution/filters.xml from the old ~/evolution folder away, and then start Evolution, the crash won't happen. 5. If I move the filters.xml back, and then restart Evolution, the crash returns. Based on the above circumstantial evidence, I suspect that my filters.xml file is the culprit of the crashes. And I will use Evolution without it for a while. -- Weiqi Gao [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
[Evolution] RC2 still broken
Downloaded and installed Evo RC2 using Red Carpet on to SuSE 7.2. I was looking forward to a fix for the broken PGP that started in RC1. RC2 does not provide any relief. A message signed by PGP is reported in Evo as PGP 2.6.x is not supported. EXCEPT the sender signed the message using PGP 6.5.8 (I know that because I signed from a second machine and emailed it to myself). The message is readable so the error report from Evo is just very annoying. However if the message is encrypted then Evo is broke, dead, non-functional. IF the message is encrypted, and of course if there is an encrypted attachment, then Evo shows the header of the message and the error indication from Evo that 2.6.x is not supported. The body of the encrypted message, the attachment and any possible method of recovery are not visible. The is no encrypted undeciphered text, no icon or menu holding the text, nothing. The recovery is to set Evo to leave messages on the server at all times. And then to close Evo and use a different email client to retrieve messages from the server, sort through those messages, find the encrypted message and view the email all through the other email client. The result is that I am having to manage 2 email clients and the messages left on the server when all I want to do is receive and send encrypted email, preferably with Evo. While Evo's handling of encrypted email is not perfect, as I have mentioned in earlier posts, prior to RC1 it was generally functional. I understand that there was a change with PGP coding in RC1 with the removal of support for PGP 2.6.x. Now there needs to be a fix so that encrypted messages can be used with Evo with at least the functionality that was in the previous beta releases. -- Ralph Sanford - If your government does not trust you, [EMAIL PROTECTED] - should you trust your government?

If I can't get rid of them, can I make the big Inbox button go to my IMAP inbox? I hope that makes at least a little sense :-) Thanks in advance, Steve ___ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
Re: [Evolution] local inbox vs. IMAP inbox
I'm not sure what you are asking...? Evolution doesn't download IMAP mail into your local Inbox unless you setup filters to do so and also configure Evolution to filter your IMAP Inbox.

[Evolution] local inbox vs. IMAP inbox
Howdy: I just started playing with evolution today, with my new courier mail server, and I can't seem to find how to disable delivery to its local inbox. There seems to be a dearth of documentation, and I'd like to keep everything on the IMAP server. I'm running the freshest ximian update (as of today) on RedHat 7.2. It seems like most IMAP clients (Netscape, mozilla, Pegasus) have their glitches, so I'd like to standardize on one if possible (evolution?).

Re: [Evolution] OK, so I'll ask directly....
Meph, Ah, I understand now. And you're right...evolution does not appear to be very smart at determining what colour to render text in based on widget colors. My best suggestion right now would be to use a theme that is darker -- and thus easier on the eyes -- but at the same time doesn't make black text unreadable. An example is BlueSteel, which is a really nice theme. I'm sure you'll find others like it. It won't fix the problem completely, but at least it's better than having a bright theme. Since Evolution is already at release candidate stage, it is highly unlikely that this issue will be fixed before development starts on 1.1. However I hope someone at Ximian is taking note -- accessibility cannot be ignored in such an important product as this.

Re: [Evolution] evolution rpms
Theoretically they should, since redhat and mandrake use a similar file layout. But nonetheless i've checked on rpmfind.net and there are evolution-0.99 (rc 1) packages available there (for RawHide, which I believe is the Red Hat development distribution - like mandrake's cooker). So those would probably be your best bet. You'll probably also have to install a host of libs with it...these are the ones I remember: gal, libgal, libgtkhtml (18/19 or something), bonobo, oaf. You best bet is to run rpm -Uvh evolution-0.99.0-1.i386.rpm and check for the dependencies. Then search rpmfind.net for them. Good luck!

This seems work, except for the fact that the folders I am _not_ subscribed to are not shown in the list (even after I pressed Refresh List). I am using an imap server where the admin has put up some read only folders for internal company wide use, and I was expecting that those would be visible in the "subscribe to folders" dialog. jtl ___ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution

It's called iCal, and is defined by the IETF. (RFCs 2445-2447). It's supported by Evolution, Palm's OS, Outlook; you get the idea.

But it won't provide real calendar sharing, which involves user/rights management. I have no idea if there's a standard on shared calendars / addressbooks. We could create an XML DTD for this kind of communication. If anybody got any thoughts about this, please let me know.
