Re: [Evolution] Ximian Connector?
I think it's a perfect idea to give away this great email client but charge the exchange lusers...er users. I'm sure there will be lots of choices for backends, some of them free, some of them extremely pricey (coughOracle 9i/cough). In the end I'm sure charging for exchange connectivity will not only help Ximian survive but will also help drive forward the quest for an open and free replacement for Exchange and help Linux desktops invade the enterprise. A three birds with one stone situation. Brady On Mon, Dec 03, 2001 at 03:40:48PM -0800, Ujwal S.

It seems that even Evolution doesn't, from the examples of discussion on here that I've seen - for example, our calendaring at the moment is p2p, right? How will Evo(GPL) handle this when Evo(Proprietary) appears? Is it really planned to have a version of iCal that wanders around client-client as well as a version that talks to servers? It all sounds a bit, um, icky. And I'm guessing that the development of the connector isn't going to be at all publically discussed. And I'm a little frustrated that the mail client that I thought was this huge effort on the part of the community to write the app that's going to be a /huge/ part in bringing Linux to the desktop is only going to be the answer to Outlook in a Yeah, use Evolution. It's cool. Oh, but you have to pay for Exchange interoperability. way, and that no-one mentioned this before. Feels almost like we have to start again, to find another way of arguing Linux is free. You can do _this_ with it. to our bosses. Anyway. Someone had to rant. I think the more fair argument is that, well, /I/ haven't put any code into Evo. And most of us haven't. And there's no way in hell it'd be here if Ximian hadn't hired people and all of this, so it's at least justified. But enough.

Re: [Evolution] evolution forgetting POP passwords between mailchecks?
I've seen this too. I'd prefer it to remember passwords as long as it's running rather than just for one download...maybe for people who prefer it the other way there could be a setting for Forget password between downloads. Brady For the past 2 snapshots that I have installed, every time Evolution checks my POP mail (2 different accounts) it always asks for my passwords. I can put in my password, it checks the mail. I then hit Send/Receive and it asks me again. Any one else see this problem? Any suggestions on a solution?

Re: [Evolution] Evo hangs with one particular email
What I have done in this case is select the email before this one and the email after using the shift key to hilite all three the I delete all three emails. If I need any of the other deleted emails I can always undelete them. To send the file out maybe put it in a folder by itself...then expunge and send the files (mbox etc) corresponding to that folder to the developers. I'm not sure exactly does Expunge does. It seems to physically move all the emails into wherever they've been virtually moved. Is it different from Empty trash? I wanted to say that I'm really happy with Evolution and the developers are doing an amazing job with it. It's obviously not perfect but watching it get better every week is half the fun of using it. Thank you very much to all the developers for this great piece of software. Brady Matt- this is the kind of thing we'd really love to see in the bugzilla. If you can use another mailer to get the source of that email, and attach it to a bug in bugzilla, we'd really appreciate it. Thanks! Luis P.S. I can't be certain, but your best bet on getting it out of your inbox is probably to use another mailer. :/ This is why we'd like to see it ourselves so we can fix it.
