Re: [Evolution] Various strange actions by Evolution
On fedora, there also exists chroot to create a separate environment, e.g. a fedora 14 system with gnome 2 and evolution 2.32 in it. So you don't have to switch to different computers/systems. Thanks again, Thomas I was aware of the chroot approach but had forgotten about it. I'll give it a try later this week. The F13 box is working fine but I do want to add the laptop at some point. The worry is the eventual lack of fixes/updates for Evo 2.x. Perhaps not so eventual, eh?

Re: [Evolution] Various strange actions by Evolution
Another option might be 'BlueBubble' ... he's only going to maintain it until his remaining issues with gnome 3 get worked out. Certainly something to look at, Arthur. It's not that I'm so in love with G2 per se but the desktop was most useful -- more than G3, IMO. It would have been better if the new presentation had been a fork built on top of the manager with a path back to G2 if it's wreaking havoc in the apps and their development but then I'm just a bystander not all that familiar with the innards.

[Evolution] Preview vertical layout
Hi there. I recently installed Ubuntu 11.04 and thought I'd give Evolution a try. I'm mostly happy except for a things here and there which, no doubt, will eventually push me to another application. For example, I have a wide screen and have set up my preview layout to be vertical instead of the default horizontal. However, Evolution creates a narrow preview pane and a very very wide messages pane which, obviously, is pointless. So I drag the divider to the left, making the preview pane wider. Evolution forgets about this when I re-start it and defaults the preview pane to a super narrow one. Is there a way to fix this? ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
Re: [Evolution] Various strange actions by Evolution
Note that using Evo does not imply using all of Gnome, just some libraries. Indeed. I'm just rebelling against the extra work ;) Something to do later in the week. Life never gets dull.

Without further info it's impossible to say - Well, I can say: works-for-me. Evolution remembers the vertical mode arrangement of the view between quite and restart. Yes it works for me as well. But it depends on what the OP is using. The value is stored in Gconf to maintain state and held in the key /apps/evolution/mail/display/hpaned_size - if the OP is using evo on, say, kde and gconf isn't working, then value won't be stored. You can see what's happening by running the command gconftool-2 -g /apps/evolution/mail/display/hpaned_size to give you the value of that key. Changing the size of the preview pane should result in that value changing.

[Evolution] Conversion failure, Datastructure mess, Crashes
I have just upgraded from Fedora-13 to Fedora-15, which uses a maildir format rather than the mbox format previously used. Evolution crashed in the conversion process, leaving me in a mixed state with a few of the maildir folders, which are (I think) in ~/.local/share/evolution/mail/local/cur and most of the remaining data structure in mbox form in various files in ~/.local/share/evolution/mail/local_mbox Since I've been using evolution about 4 days since the upgrade, some of my messages are in one format, and some in the other, and some in both. Also, Evolution now crashes whenever it has to file a message I have sent in a folder other than Sent, probably because there is no folder available of the right kind. Any advice on how to straighten out this mess would be very welcome. jon ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

Yet again: telling people the version of the OS is not helpful. You need to mention the version of Evolution. Since I also use Fedora, I happen to know that it's 3.0.x, but not everyone on the list will know that. Evolution crashed in the conversion process, leaving me in a mixed state with a few of the maildir folders, which are (I think) in ~/.local/share/evolution/mail/local/cur and most of the remaining data structure in mbox form in various files in ~/.local/share/evolution/mail/local_mbox Did it say anything when it crashed? Is there anything in /var/log/messages? Did abrt intervene (since this is Fedora)? Since I've been using evolution about 4 days since the upgrade, some of my messages are in one format, and some in the other, and some in both. Also, Evolution now crashes whenever it has to file a message I have sent in a folder other than Sent, probably because there is no folder available of the right kind. A bug in the version of Evo 3 distributed with Fedora 15 (now corrected in updates) means you have to explicitly select your Sent, Drafts etc. folders the first time. However the symptom is not a crash but an error message. Which is it? You can import mbox files into Evo, so that might be a way of unifying your mailboxes. poc ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

No, but if you already ran Evo it doesn't matter as it won't try to convert again. Just go to the account info under Preferences, select Defaults and point to the Sent and Draft folders. That should be enough. You can import mbox files into Evo, so that might be a way of unifying your mailboxes. How can I avoid duplicate instances of the same message?

[Evolution] Why does Evolution IMAP send a \* flag with IMAP APPEND?
I'm using a Courier IMAP server and the Evolution 3.0.2 included with Fedora 15. When I try to move some messages from one folder to an archive folder, Evolution does a few messages and then stops with an error. I turned debugging on in the Courier server and I get this when it fails: READ: ATOM: T02473 READ: ATOM: APPEND READ: ATOM: INBOX.Archive-2011-06 READ: ATOM: \SEEN READ: ATOM: NOTJUNK READ: ATOM: \* WRITE: T02473 NO Error in IMAP command received by server. All of the APPEND commands that work do not include \*. All of the APPEND commands that fail do include it. Now, as far as I know and as far as I've been able to find out with Google searches, the \* flag is a special flag that should not ever be set on a message. So why is Evolution trying to set it? Some more information that might be useful. The IMAP box is also accessed by other applications like Thunderbird and K9 Mail which may have flags of their own. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
