Don't top-post on this list please, especially when the message you're

Click the magnifying glass in the search box to select 'message

Re: [Evolution] Bug 579185

2009-12-15 Thread Tor Lillqvist
 I love Linux and Evolution, but my job requires full access to Exchange 
Server. I really want
 to dump Windows.

But does your employer want you to do that? Back from my sysadmin
days, I remember how we loathed people who
knew better and just had to do things in their own way disrupting
company IT strategies, causing extra support costs.

 how it can be elevated to a critical issue?

Presumably by a paying customer with lots of support contracts filing
a bug with their Linux vendor in question?

It's not clear we're talking about the same bug. The BZ report is for a

I've now had a chance to verify this. It appears that the message is
accepted for sending but doesn't go anywhere. It's not in the Outbox,
nor in the Drafts. IOW a user who falls victim to this bug is quite
likely to lose the message he was composing. This seems to me quite
serious, and waiting for a fix in 2.30 means waiting 6 months for those
who don't compile their own Evo, which is most people.

If at all possible, I would urge the devs to consider backporting the
fix to 2.28.

  Yes, copying .evolution is one way to go, but it is not an official

  The only real way to keep multiple copies of Evo in sync is to not store
  anything locally - i.e. use IMAP, LDAP and CalDAV.  It used to be that
 provided that your mail provider gives you one of these services - mine
 gives me only exchange 2007 through RPC over HTTP. So i am stuck with
 forwarding all this emails to my private pop3 account, until
 evolution-imap starts to support RPC over HTTP :(

You could forward them to an IMAP provider (such as Gmail or Fastmail)
and work from there.

[Evolution] Opening pdf attachments

2009-12-15 Thread Carpet Nailz
I see lots of posts about similar problems, but there doesn't seem to be
a solution that I've found.

I'm running Evo 2.24.1.1, which is the latest version for openSuse 11.1.
When I get a pdf attachment, I often do not get the option to open the
attachment with either Acrobat reader or Evince. One email that I
received this morning only give me the options of gedit or
OpenOffice.org Writer/Web...

Other times I get one or the other or both Acrobat or Evince. I actually
received one email with two pdf attachments. One attachment gave me the
options and the other did not (??).

I did not have this problem in the past with Evolution--seems to have
started with my move to openSuse 11.1.

If I right-click on a pdf file in Nautilus it shows all the relevant
options.

Thanks for any help.

My *personal* opinion is that there seems to be so many problems and

DavMail into Evo - perhaps even with a view to it being the main way of

Just as a point of order, I've tried DavMail and haven't had much more
success with it in terms of the things I really need Exchange support
for, which is primarily calendaring with the ability to schedule
meetings, see free/busy information, and get meeting reminders than with
the MAPI plugin.  Which is to say, basically none.

In fact I haven't had much more success at all with davmail.  I only

I think something along the lines of the following conversions have

file will be empty/removed after the invocation.

I generally copy the mbox file to /tmp and use it in the move.
Don't forget evolution --force-shutdown first.

movemail is part of GNU mailutils package.


copy original mbox file to cur.mbox then
 movemail  /tmp/cur.mbox  maildir:///tmp/newMaildir


convert from maildir to mbox
copy original maildir folder to newMaildir then
movemail  maildir:///tmp/newMaildir  /tmp/cur.mbox 



As a quick test, i just copied an old TB Local Folders/Sent file to /tmp
and ran
 movemail Sent maildir:///tmp/newMaildir

then
mutt -f /tmp/newMaildir

and it looks to be fine.

I can connect Evolution to a shared iCalendar file but it's a read

to use another application to write tasks to the file.  One might as
well then use the other application all the time.

Thanks for the suggestion. I've pursued it.

I don't think it's the solution, though. In the case of the email with
two pdfs attached, they both are type=application/pdf (according to the
properties of the files once I save them to the desktop), yet one (in
the email) give me as options to open Evince, Acrobat, OpenOffice
writer,  GIMP; while the other (same type) only gives OOwriter/web and
gedit. (On the desktop they both give me the same set of apps to open
with: Evince, Acrobat, OpenOffice Writer and GIMP.)

My mimeapps.list file had this line:
application/pdf=evince.desktop;writer.desktop;

I added acroread.desktop to the end of that line and also added this
line: 
acrobat/pdf=acroread.desktop;evince.desktop;

This has not made any difference in the behavior of the sample email
I've been working with.

I just copied the two documents to a flash drive from my desktop, moved
it to my Vista box and mailed them back to myself (with Notes mail).
This time in Evolution both gave me only OpenOfficeWriter/web and gedit
options even though, again, both behaved fine when saved to the desktop.
So the computer knows how to open them. It's just Evolution that
doesn't.

Thanks.

Evo is not designed to be capable of sharing local files between

you'll need to run a calendar server on one of your machines, perhaps as

  properties of the files once I save them to the desktop), yet one (in
  the email) give me as options to open Evince, Acrobat, OpenOffice
  writer,  GIMP; while the other (same type) only gives OOwriter/web
  and
  gedit. (On the desktop they both give me the same set of apps to open
  with: Evince, Acrobat, OpenOffice Writer and GIMP.)
 
 This is irrelevant. Evo looks at the MIME types encoded in the message
 itself. Look at the MIME headers using View-Message Source or Ctrl-U.
 
 poc
 
I took a look at the MIME info in the email Message Source. The
attachment that gave me good open with results (Evince,OpenOffice
Writer,Acrobat, Gimp) showed this:
Content-type: application/pdf; name=knutsonetal_NeuralPredictors.pdf;
x-mac-creator=70727677; x-mac-type=50444620
Content-disposition: attachment;
filename=knutsonetal_NeuralPredictors.pdf
Content-transfer-encoding: base64

The other message, which only offered OpenOffice Writer/web and gedit as
open with options, showed this: 

Content-type: application/octet-stream; name=application of real-time
fMRI.pdf
Content-disposition: attachment; filename=application of real-time
fMRI.pdf
Content-transfer-encoding: base64

I guess I don't understand what determines the MIME type of a pdf. From
what I see when investigating MIME types on the web, there should be a
close relationship between file type (eg, pdf) and mime type. I haven't
been able to find anything but cursory explanations of MIME types that
just link them with file types such as pdf.

Other items:
One forum discussing this included this strange bit of advice, Inform
the clueless sender about the proper MIME types. Can the sender change
the MIME type of an existing pdf?

The email I'm focusing on included this statement in the message source:
This message is in MIME format. Since your mail reader does not
understand this format, some or all of this message may not be legible.
Why would Evolution not understand MIME format?

When I went to my wife's Mac (OS X 5) to see what it could tell me about
the pdfs that she sent to me, I couldn't fine anything at all about MIME
type in the Get Info for the documents. Each was just described as
Kind: Portable Document Format, although they had different encoding
software indicated.

Thanks.

Thank you very much for your quick response.

Where can I enable this option? I have looked for in GUI and xml
configuration files and I didn't find it.

  Thank you very much,

 Do you use the 'message contains' option?

 Don't top-post on this list please, especially when the message you're
 replying to is bottom-posted

 Click the magnifying glass in the search box to select 'message
 contains'. Otherwise, in the Advanced Search dialog click on any of the
 conditions to select another condition (your first condition is probably
 'Subject').


Sorry for top-posting and thank you very much for your help.

Re: [Evolution] How to keep multiple Evolution desktops in sync

 You could forward them to an IMAP provider (such as Gmail or Fastmail)
 and work from there.
yea, but on the other hand, this would violate my corporate policies,
thus this solution is not for me :(

 I reported this bug on 6/18/2009.  Does anyone know if there are any 
 plans to fix it soon? Essentially the bug is that the MAPI plugin
 cannot 
 authenticate to an Exchange server that requires SSL access. Servers 
 that don't require SSL are readily accessible.  There is no option in 
 the MAPI setup to select SSL like there is on IMAP access.  I am not a
 
 programmer, but from what I can understand this bug has not been 
 assigned high priority.  It is a critical issue for many users.  Many,
 
 many servers are requiring SSL and the number is likely to increase. 

With libmapi 0.9 [1] this should be solved.

Re: [Evolution] Stuck in file file Migration

2009-12-15 Thread Sylvia Sánchez

Usually, you find what version you're using in the Help menu.  Look for
something like About Evolution...  or  About...,  About this
program,  in the help menu. 



Hope you this help

 Thanks for the reply.   This is the only info I get when starting EVO.
 I see now ... 
 
 
 
 Sorry for the large image.   I am a newbie at some of the image
 manipulation.   So version wise I am not at 2.24 since if I was I
 would not need to have this migration performed. Where is the best
 place to look for the version number since I get no other dialog boxes
 except this one?
 
 TIA  ... TomH

   I started using EVO in 8.04, worked fine. Continued with 8.10 still ok. 
   Somethings just needed to be learned.  Upgraded to 9.04 ... a file 
   format migration was implemented ... EVO died during migration ... about 
   2k worth of email locked up with a never ending migration.  Moved to TB  
   ... would like to get my email back ... even continue with EVO
   
   9.10 no help ...  is there a thread on what to do to get this migration

  For the benefit of those of us who don't use Ubuntu, please refer to
  Evo's own version numbers.

Re: [Evolution] Opening pdf attachments

 I see lots of posts about similar problems, but there doesn't seem to
 be
 a solution that I've found.
 
 I'm running Evo 2.24.1.1, which is the latest version for openSuse
 11.1.
 When I get a pdf attachment, I often do not get the option to open the
 attachment with either Acrobat reader or Evince. One email that I
 received this morning only give me the options of gedit or
 OpenOffice.org Writer/Web...
 
 Other times I get one or the other or both Acrobat or Evince. I
 actually
 received one email with two pdf attachments. One attachment gave me
 the
 options and the other did not (??).
 

This was fixed in 2.26.x 
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=572543

If you upgrade to OpenSUSE 11.2, you will get the fix. 

- Akhil

 I did not have this problem in the past with Evolution--seems to have
 started with my move to openSuse 11.1.
 
 If I right-click on a pdf file in Nautilus it shows all the relevant
 options.
 
 Thanks for any help.
