Re: [Evolution-hackers] Any documentation around anywhere?
I'd like to suggest that for the future we might want to use a tool like javadoc. This would allow the documentation for the classes/functions to be included in the source code and automatically extracted to HTML. This is a great way to the basic documentation for the classes, although you still have to do overviews, how-tos, etc. A tool that does javadoc-like doc generation for C++ is CCDoc, found at http://www.joelinoff.com/ccdoc/.

Re: [Evolution] to be usable
Which is what I said at the end. I understand the want for it, I debate the suggestion that it should be default for IMAP users, as it is more likely to cause problems. This is a personal preference, not by any means a limitation. I think you may be looking at a catch-22 situation. Not everyone stores their drafts etc. in the same place on their IMAP servers. So, when Evo sets up an IMAP account it cannot assume that a given set of folders will exist there. Furthermore, it cannot check for existing folders until the account is already set up and you have subscribed to folders. There's your catch-22. I don't think Evo can do it automagically without user input; you might file an RFE for a feature that asks the user after getting all other account settings: Would you like to subscribe now and select special folders? Users new to IMAP might find this useful. ___ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
Re: [Evolution] Re: local inbox vs. IMAP inbox
Hi Steve - When I first fired up evolution, it brought a bunch of messages into it's own local inbox (the one that shows in the button panel along the left side). 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
Re: [Evolution] disconnected IMAP
Also, is it possible to view the calendar folder offered by Exchange via IMAP as a calendar? At the moment it all appears as a series of messages, as do tasks etcetc. Is it possible to assign custom views to these folders which would allow correct interpretation of the contents? That would be so nice, especially if Evolution could use IMAP folders for calendar/tasks without requiring an Exchange server. If I were you I'd file wish list bugs for both of these at bugzilla.ximian.com! I would like to see some coordination between Evolution and Mozilla so that their calendar data is compatible. Not import/export, but direct access from the applications, just like IMAP clients. I like having both Evolution and Mozilla available for IMAP access; it would be great if this held for calendar data as well. It would also provide a smooth migration path to Linux for Outlook users: Outlook/Win - Moz/Win - Moz/Linux - Evo/Linux Or you could just make Evo cross-platform :-) ___ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution

I reopened Evolution, and pressed the New Message button, which usually then says something to the effect of I've found drafts, do you want me to recover them and I say yes. Well, I'm running the most recent Snap of RC1, and it didn't do that, so that very well thought out email is now lost, and Im struggling to recreate it. Is there any way to recover it?

[Evolution] evolution comments
Couple thoughts on evolution: - I would like to be able to print out the task list - the calendar reminders do me no good at all if they are not displayed until I'm actually looking at the calendar - until a server back end becomes available for Evolution, I would appreciate the ability to save/restore the calendar information to a central site; maybe just some ftp space on the net where evolution copies calendar data from upon starting up and saves to upon shutting down. the set-up dialog might ask for an FTP address, login and password. whether i enter appointments at home or at work, i need to be reminded of them when the time comes regardless of my location. (this could apply to all aspects of evo data like tasks and contacts, but my most pressing need are calendar reminders) - the snooze feature really needs an option to select the units; i'm tired of calculating how many minutes are in 2.5 days or 18 hours :-) - in Summary view, I would like the ability to resize the frames that show my newsfeed and summary mail/task info. I need much less space for news feed, and more for the other stuff - i would like evolution to make me thin, muscular, charming, dashing, and debonnaire. i guess i could wait for the next major version for that though And a question - any plans for a windows version of evolution, to use as a migration tool for our windows users? ___ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
