Re: [Evolution] Determining the account used for sending mail

2002-07-30 Thread Aaron Kemp

Well, I have 5 accounts configured right now, all POP3.  They are from
various hosts.

The default account is [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[EMAIL PROTECTED] goes to picassofish.com.  This is a Linux box on
the net, has a sendmail server running on it.  I connect via POP3 from
evolution and download my mail.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] goes to mail.kwic.com.  KWIC is my ISP.  They have a
bunch of FreeBSD boxen and one of them is running sendmail.  I, again,
connect via POP3 to their mail server and download my mail.

I then have a whole bunch of Evolution filters (SPAM stuff, folder
routing, etc) but I don't think they play into this at all.  No
procmail, no other stuff in between.

Now, replying to "normal" messages seems to work well - the correct
account is probed from (presumably) X-Evolution-Source: but replying to
mailing lists (any list, I'm on several) selects the default account
([EMAIL PROTECTED]) not the one specified in the X-Evo-source
header.

So, to summarize, they both travel to me via sendmail and POP3.  They
"merge", as far as I know, only in the sense that they are both stored
on the same hard disk.

Hmm... Interesting.  I clicked reply to the message you sent to the
list.  It selected the right account.  I'm guessing this is because I
appear as a recipient?

Thanks
Aaron

The old 1.0.x way doesn't work when replying to lists.  Eg. I have two
accounts (I have a lot more than that, but that's not the point) one is
[EMAIL PROTECTED] and one is [EMAIL PROTECTED]  I am subscribed to
this list via [EMAIL PROTECTED]  When I clicked reply just now, Evolution
selected my default account ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) instead of the one
in the X-Evolution-Source: header ([EMAIL PROTECTED]).  This is annoying as
hell because if I don't change the from address, my mail is silently
dropped by the list server since my address isn't subscribed. 
Ironically enough, this happened when I was talking to Jeff about the
fact that the autodetection was broken.

Other than that, I have no complaint with the way 1.0.x works, so if
that bug could be fixed...  Jeff assures me that it works in 1.1.x, I
haven't been brave enough to start using the dev-snaps yet...

Maybe a filter action to send a message could solve this (and other)

Have you tried clicking View -> Message Display -> Message Source before
selecting the message?

Or turning off the Preview Pane?

With Galeon, you set the mail handler to

For the record, I evaluated OpenMail at our company as a replacement for
Exchange.  I did have to install an OpenMail component on each Outlook
workstation for full functionality.  IIRC, once the plugin was installed
a new source was available when configuring mail accounts.

Evolution on the other hand is working great with Exchange (Mail anyway)
without a plugin : )  I will be purchasing the connector when it's
available though, since I don't think our IT department will be dropping
Exchange anytime soon : /
