It turns out that it wasn't the application ID that was the problem, but the tenant ID. With the tenant ID set to "common" I got the error mentioned, but when I looked up the tenant ID in the Azure Endpoints directory I was able to connect.

[Evolution] Problem accessing Office365 account
Hi all, Apologies if this is a known issue; I did look in the list archive but couldn't see any obvious references. I've just started a new job, and my new employer uses Office365. I'm trying to connect Evolution to my new email account. I'm using Evolution 3.40.4-1ubuntu2, on Ubuntu 21.10. I have installed `evolution-ews`. When I go through the File > New > Mail account flow, I set the account type to "Exchange Web Services", and the authentication to "OAuth2 (Office365)". But when Evolution tries to initiate the OAuth flow, I get an error: ``` https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/oauth2/nativeclient?error=invalid_request_description=AADSTS90027%3a+We+are+unable+to+issue+tokens+from+this+API+version+on+the+MSA+tenant.+Please+contact+the+application+vendor+as+they+need+to+use+version+2.0+of+the+protocol+to+support+this.%0d%0aTrace+ID%3a+7580219e-63af-4f37-a9b7-03574de62b00%0d%0aCorrelation+ID%3a+e552fb57-e3a4-40e3-88b6-a17aefd301eb%0d%0aTimestamp%3a+2022-05-03+07%3a05%3a25Z ``` Can anyone suggest a solution or diagnostic to try?

Re: [Evolution] Full history in reply
Hi All, I think the suggestion was that "It was an option" I would also like this option. From a business perspective it ensures that the entire conversation can be seen in a single document. Yes it costs a little more in storage but storage is cheap. Also other mail clients do exactly this. I suggest that you test with the more common email clients. The fact that you conflate this with with top posting Microsoft, google etc doing things is a manner which doesn't agree with your views isn't really relevant. Just as if you don't like a members of a particular race or sexual orientation whilst it might be relevant to you, it's not really relevant to including the history in a reply.

[Evolution] kerberos authentication
Hi All, We use a cyrus imap internally and leverage kerberos to provide seamless authentication for mail clients, calendaring and tasks. Evolution uses kerberos for the imap and SMTP protocols however the CalDav functionality prompts for a password. The server supports kerberos authentication for the calendar so is the statement that "Evolution CalDav only supports simple Basic password based authentication" correct? If this is correct is there any thoughts on whether a more consistent authentication approach would be beneficial and has any work ever been done in this space?

Re: [Evolution] email colours
Thanks to John and Pete for your replies. John, I have tried to install a later version but no luck. I found a ppa (ppa:fta/gno,e3) which has 3.16.1, but when I removed and reinstalled Evolution it installed the same version again (3.10.4). It seems the official repositories override any PPAs present, even if (or maybe because) they contain newer versions. The only other download I could find was a tar.xz. I downloaded that and started reading the README, I got about half way through and gave up, way too complex for me to attempt. Pete, I can't find anywhere to change themes in my version, in fact there is no mention of themes at all. I couldn't view the help (selecting Help Contents did nothing) so I found the help on the net. It had no mention of themes in it either. Not sure where to look next.

Hi I've configured Evolution to connect to our exchange server with EWS.

Adding the exchange servers address to /etc/hosts made no difference. Removing the entry 'mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return]' from /etc/nsswitch.conf also made no difference.

When the count becomes equal to the number of marked messages, it returns to consistency.

Is there a way to export all the mail in folder? I am looking for a way to export from my outbox to my pda so that I can send from another location. ___ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
[Evolution] Go directly to new mail
I was wondering if it was possible to have the first new mail message open automatically when I enter a new folder? -- Ian Truelsen s/v Sting Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] AIM: ihtruelsen MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Google Talk: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
[Evolution] Mail sync question
Okay, so here is what I want to be able to do: I have evolution on my laptop, but I do not always have access to an internet connection here for the laptop, so I would like to be able to take my PDA (Dell Axim X5) and download my mail, then bring it back and transfer the mail to my laptop. I don't really care whether this is via irda, usb, or sd card transfer. I would then like to be able to transfer outgoing mail to the PDA and then send it that way. It doesn't seem as though any of the syncing options that I can find will do the mail, only contacts, calendars, etc. So, is this possible? -- Ian Truelsen s/v Sting Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] AIM: ihtruelsen MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Google Talk: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
Re: [Evolution] Exchange connector crashes.
Ok, it is now in bugzilla at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=327557 Ian On Tue, 2006-01-17 at 22:57 +0530, Sarfraaz Ahmed wrote: Hi Ian, Attach gdb to evolution-exchange-storage process [ use gdb -p process id ] and then get the backtrace [ type 'thread apply all bt' at the gdb prompt ] when exchange process dies. That should give more information to developers. Also, create a bug for this in bugzilla.gnome.org and reply back that bug number here. I am sure the developers shall then do something about it.

I don't know exactly what is wrong, but often (not always) when I enter a partial name in one of the address lines, and Evolution attempts to do a LDAP lookup for me, the exchange server crashes with a message like: The Application evolution-exchange-storage has quit unexpectedly. I tried: E2K_DEBUG=4 /usr/libexec/evolution/2.2/evolution-exchange-storage CAMEL_VERBOSE_DEBUG=1 evolution Sometimes this gives results sometimes not. One time it gave this message: e_data_book_respond_get_book_view Multiple segmentation faults occurred; can't display error dialog Prior to that I was entering the name Curt and it seems evolution was doing multiple lookups as I typed. Perhaps when the results come in, it confuses evolution ... It seems it does a look up after each letter after 2 are input. first cu then cur then curt The application typically dies after the 4th character is pressed.

The documentation talks about 'contact manager' and 'address book'. I'd like one of these but I can't seem to find it anywhere. Call me blind if you like. And when I go 'add to addressbook' all I get is a blank window pane - nothing in it. It appears as though I don't have an address book. Did I do something naughty or what? What do I need to do to have/see an address book?

Re: [Evolution] Contact editor
Thanks Sushma. In the console when evolution was starting I saw that libsasl2.so.2 could not be found. To install this file I installed cyrus-sasl-2.1.21, which solved the problem. I now have a beautiful Contact Manager. Thanks for your help. Regards Ian. On Mon, 2005-11-28 at 14:13 +0530, Sushma Rai wrote: Looks like contacts component is not loaded.

[Evolution] Free/Busy Retrieval via http (non-groupware) not working for me since v1.4.6
In Evolution v.1.4.6 (on SuSE 9.1) I was able to create a contact, filling out the Free-Busy URL which points to a .ifb file on a web server, invite this contact to a meeting and see his/her free-busy display to pick a meeting time. I have tried several versions since then, the latest being Evolution v2.4 on the Ubuntu Breezy Badger PreviewLive CD, and Evolution does not fetch free/busy information via http, as verified from the www server logs. The same url cut and pasted to a browser works fine. The most recent relevant post on the list I can find is here: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/evolution-list/2005-February/msg00370.html Has anyone else experienced this? Maybe the contact free/busy url in later Evolution versions needs a different syntax? Any ideas?
