I have compiled and installed evolution from git.  I removed and re-added my
account and am still getting the same error.  I looked at the source and I
believe that the patch you referenced has already been applied.  I will try
to debug it, please let me know if you have any ideas.

Thanks,
Mike

Hi Luis,

You can get evolution-ews packaged for ubuntu from my PPA repository
(ppa:phurley/ppa) or go here https://launchpad.net/~phurley/+archive/ppa
to learn how to add this PPA and check the signing key.

This PPA is for oneiric only (or rather for evolution v3.2.2 distributed
in oneiric). This PPA *might* work for precise as the current EDS in
precise is v3.2.3.

Please note that this version of evolution-ews is still unstable (only a
few bug fixes have been backported) and I probably won't do another
re-package until evolution 3.4 is released.

Hi,
the bug is for IMAP, and technically makes sense only there, as it
doesn't make any sense on exchange servers, for example, because it's
user-configurable how the IMAP provider should behave, and that's the
main point. For what would it be with NNTP provider, for example? Of
course, provider's/store's flags may tell you whether it has or has not
any meaning for it, which the actual solution does too.

Please do not call it dirty hack, it is not any such thing. It's dirty
hack on IMAP protocol itself, but not for the code base.

I'm sure you know this, but there is no move operation in IMAP - so a
move is implemented as a copy and mark as deleted.  For what you are
suggesting to work, then you need to end up the sequence with a purge
folder so that the deleted message disappears from the folder.  It's
this last operation that is problematic in some instances - it's an
expensive process on some servers (i.e. those with large MBOX format
files) - doing a folder purge everytime you press the delete button is
not very friendly.

I suppose some would argue that the limitations of a server shouldn't be
a factor in designing the client, but I would sit in the opposite camp
where you should be aware of problems so that you can create the best
possible overall user experience.

 
 Once that's done, we should be able to use the Deleted Items folder
 fairly easily.
 
 The disadvantage of this approach is that you don't know where the

But I would be against changing the internals of Evo just because that's
what Outlook users are used to.  Evo is not an Outlook clone, it's
better than that.  Things should be developed and changed so that they
are improved, not so that they mimic some other piece of software.

I understand that the delete behaviour would be configurable - but is
the re-write of Evo internals worth it just so that Exchange users are
not inconvenienced by having to learn a new way of working?

The 'real trash folder' concept can apply to *any* mail store, not just
IMAP. Even with a local Maildir or mbox store you can designate one
Deleted Items folder, and then Evolution can move mail there instead
of just setting the 'deleted' flag on it.

It most certainly *does* apply to the Exchange server too, and is
*exactly* what we want to do on Exchange to preserve the Outlook
behaviour.

NNTP is a special case because it's read-only. You don't actually write
your 'deleted' state back to the server at all for NNTP.

 Please do not call it dirty hack, it is not any such thing. It's dirty
 hack on IMAP protocol itself, but not for the code base. 

That's true. It's a dirty hack on the protocol.

It's also a dirty hack in the back end, though. The back end *already*
supported the move messages operation, and the UI could have just
asked it to move the messages.

Done in *Evolution*, or perhaps in higher levels of Camel and *not* in
individual back ends, it wouldn't be a dirty hack.

This is an issue with using the IMAP protocol to implement the 'real
trash folder', you are absolutely right. But it's an issue that we have
to deal with *wherever* we implement the 'conversion' from flag-setting
to message-moving.

I haven't looked at exactly how this *is* handled in the IMAP code. Does
it actually issue the EXPUNGE, or just rely on the fact that the user is
running with the 'hide deleted messages' option set? Either way, this is
not a *new* issue.

 I understand that the delete behaviour would be configurable - but is
 the re-write of Evo internals worth it just so that Exchange users are
 not inconvenienced by having to learn a new way of working?

I think you misunderstand. This real trash folder feature request has
been around for a long time; it isn't something that's being suggested
purely for the benefit of the EWS back end.

I'm just saying that I haven't paid much attention to the deletion
handing in EWS yet, because once the 'real trash folder' support is done
*generically* in Camel, we should be able to use it.

Hi.

I have two problems with this release:

1. There is no virtual Trash directory in a new EWS account. This
makes it hard to track deleted messages. As an alternative it would be
useful to move deleted mails to Delete Items directory instead of
marking them as deleted.

2. Address book is not working. It says Detailed error message:
Invalid source for some reason.

Everything else seem to work perfectly for me.

Ideally, I would like messages to be moved to Deleted Items when I
delete them, but even the current way (marking them as deleted
instead), is OK to me. If the second way is going to stay, then I
would like to have some virtual Trash. I did not find the way to
create a search folders that would show deleted items for me. It is
possible to use such criteria (status=deleted), but all the messages
in such search folder will be hidden :)

Anyway, I found the commit where you disable Trash, so I will be able
to enable it myself for me only.

 2. Address book is not working. It says Detailed error message:

http://build.meego.com/package/files?package=evolution-ewsproject=home%3Adwmw2%3Aevo

Thanks.

I didn't install these, as I downloaded the packaged file.


 cd evolution-ews

Hehe, this is just the beginnig. This is the list of packages I had to

libedataserverui1.2-dev

I guess gconf was included in one of the above, but in case it wasn't the
package is libgconf2-dev.

I just cloned the git repo, and after installing gnome-common and
gtk-doc-tools everything worked, so it should work for you too. Let me know
if you still have errors, I might have missed a library above.

Please remember to trim your citations. There was no need for you to

Having installed, you should now be able to create a new account and
choose 'Exchange Web Services' as the account type, in the second page

Autodiscover is a PITA. Can you try running from the command line with
'EWS_DEBUG=2 evolution' and see what happens when you click the 'Fetch
URL' button?

See the other discussion about autodiscovery which arose from the
announcement on the mailing list. There's some useful information in
there which should help you get it working.

 Ok, the autodiscover URL is timing out, I even tried doing the POST
manually with wget and it didn't connect. So I asked our IT guy for the EWS
endpoint URL, I manually entered that and now I get this response from the

Thank you! That was exactly what was wrong. Inserting /ews/exchange.asmx

I'm not sure how the auto-discovery-url-thing should work, should it

have found it? Oddly, there were no complaints when I had used another
completely different URL on the server.

 Oh, joy. So the address that is publicly visible is just a 'vanity'
 address that forwards to the 'real' address behind the scenes?

'vanity' implies desireable :-)  But yes, that is the general scenario.
The issue really is that we are a large academic institution - the
exchange mail service is provided centrally, but departments (aka
units) are autonomous and it is desirable from an administrative point
of view to maintain the separation.  Some units also provide their own
mail service to add to the confusion.

 
 When you attempt to *send* an email, Exchange puts an address on it
 automatically, and will *reject* any attempts to send messages with a
 From: address that doesn't belong to you
  (which means it's broken for
 the 'forward as redirect' operation, and I don't see any way to fix it).

Well as far as I can see MS applications have never believed in the
importance of the redirect facility and have never implemented it.

 
 What address(es) will your server accept when you attempt to send mail?

I can set my Email address in Evo to either my exchange address or real
address and it's accepted - change it to something else and I get an
error The user account which was used to submit this request does not
have the right to send mail on behalf of the specified sending account.

 
 Does it make you send using the exchange.xx.yy.zz address, and then
 rewrite it to the unit.xx.yy.zz address automatically? Or do you send
 using the unit.xx.yy.zz address?

I can send using either, but it rewrites it to the Unit address.

 
 Your current configuration uses the unit.xx.yy.zz address, but has the
 URL which was obtained with the exchange.xx.yy.zz autoconfiguration?

Yes.

 Have you tried to send mail yet?

Yes.  Works fine.


 
  I have no doubt that the setup at my work is bizarre so I doubt it is
  worth it, or even possible, to alter the code to accommodate it.
 
 I suspect it's not *that* uncommon. Nobody in their right mind would
 really want to have an Exchange system facing the public Internet;
 wouldn't you *always* want it behind some kind of buffer server?

Yes, there are other complications with the mail setup as well - the
outward facing mail servers are not, as you suspect, exchange servers -
we have a bunch of *nix based machines that do all the sanity checking
on incoming mail - virus  spam protection etc. - and the redirection of
mail to the correct server.  I actually don't really use the Exchange
server, all my mail is directed to my own server that does a bunch of
server side filtering and runs a proper IMAP server :-)  I'm sorting all
this out because it should allow our Linux users to finally get full
benefit from the central servers.

 
  Finally, you've labeled this as an Alpha release - do you have any idea
  of the timescale for getting it to beta and ultimately to stable?
 
 Within 2-3 months, I hope. If that.

Sounds good.

 Read-only calendar support is already working, and we've fixed a few
 long-standing bugs in Evolution that our QA team found when testing
 that. We are currently working on write support for the calendar, and
 personal addressbook support. And on a few nasty implementation details
 that we postponed until after the Alpha release.
 

I haven't really looked at the calendar yet - I can see that it knows
the calendar exists, but nothing is actually being displayed!  I'll do
some investigation...

It'll probably work if you add the appropriate calendar to the calendar

Any of the above work for me, as does asking on #evolution on

Can you run evolution from the command line with EWS_DEBUG=2, and show
the output? Make sure you have your password right.

I assume the autodiscovery went OK and you have a correct URL in your

Yes, I've been getting those errors - I'm using F14 with Evo 2.32.2.
The strange thing is that I set it up on my home machine first and it
worked fine straight off.  No joy on my work machine that has much
better connectivity to the Exchange server!

In the end I deleted the account, cleared out all the EWS stuff
from .local/share/evolution and removed stored EWS passwords from the
Gnome keyring, then recreated the account using the same info as on my
home machine - I think the key thing is to get the username  and host
URL correct - the username is just the same as you use to sign in on the
web access to the Exchange server and the url for me is of the form

It then all worked properly - although the username does seem to

reliable.

The other thing that I think might have confused things was that I
initially put in my real email address and not the
usern...@exchange.server.add on the first screen.  As I said, it's all
working now so it's difficult for me to categorically say what the
issues are - or even file bugs against it.

 I assume the autodiscovery went OK and you have a correct URL in your
 configuration?
 

Further to my previous message - autodiscovery worked fine on my home
machine, but never completed correctly on my work machine - the two
machines are running the same OS  Evo versions.

Not yet. They should be. Is there a sensible place to put a wiki page?

Actually it's supposed to be your *real* email address.

So in my case I enter 'david.woodho...@intel.com. When I then hit the
'Fetch URL' button to do the autodiscovery, it follows the instructions
at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee332364.aspx — which are
basically:
  - Construct an XML request
  - Try posting it to https://intel.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml
  - If that fails, try posting it to https://autodiscover.intel.com/...

(Actually there's slightly more in the MS documentation that we don't
quite implement yet, but this ought to work, I think).

In fact, our sysadmins are stupid and refuse to fix the broken firewall
that drops packets to intel.com port 443 instead of rejecting them, and
which causes that first request to take ages to time out. So the EWS
code will do *both* of those requests in parallel and take the results
of the first successful one.

This autodiscover stuff is all a bit of a mess, and I suspect it's often
not set up correctly. If you find it misbehaving, it would be very
useful if you could try to work out what's wrong, and if there's
something in http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee332364.aspx that
we *should* be doing, that we're not.

Yes, it should have done. See my reply to Pete.

We probably ought to have better error handling when you point it at the
wrong URL, too. At the moment, it just says 'No response' for fairly
much *everything*.

It was doing that for wrong passwords too, originally, but we figured we
really had to fix that before the Alpha release :)

 Actually it's supposed to be your *real* email address.

The problem with our setup is that the real address is aliased to the
Exchange address before Exchange even sees the email.  So my email
address of pete.bi...@unit.xx.yy.zz is aliased to my exchange address of
pbi...@exchange.xx.yy.zz before it hits the exchange server - indeed my
exchange address works perfectly happily as a real email address, we
are just firmly encouraged not to use them.

 
 So in my case I enter 'david.woodho...@intel.com. When I then hit the
 'Fetch URL' button to do the autodiscovery, it follows the instructions
 at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee332364.aspx — which are
 basically:
   - Construct an XML request
   - Try posting it to https://intel.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml
   - If that fails, try posting it to https://autodiscover.intel.com/...
 

So the two URLs of unit.xx.yy.zz/autodiscover/... or
autodiscover.unit.xx.yy.zz don't exist, however
exchange.xx.yy.zz/autodiscover/... does exist.

 
 This autodiscover stuff is all a bit of a mess, and I suspect it's often
 not set up correctly. If you find it misbehaving, it would be very
 useful if you could try to work out what's wrong, and if there's
 something in http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee332364.aspx that
 we *should* be doing, that we're not.
 

The bottom line is that entering an email address of
pete.bi...@unit.xx.yy.zz results in no response when clicking on the
Fetch URL button - I have the Debug traces and it looks like Evo just
keeps sending the same request but not getting any response.  Conversely
putting pbi...@exchange.xx.yy.zz gets the correct URL back and
everything works.

I have no doubt that the setup at my work is bizarre so I doubt it is
worth it, or even possible, to alter the code to accommodate it.

Finally, you've labeled this as an Alpha release - do you have any idea
of the timescale for getting it to beta and ultimately to stable?

Oh, joy. So the address that is publicly visible is just a 'vanity'
address that forwards to the 'real' address behind the scenes?

When you attempt to *send* an email, Exchange puts an address on it
automatically, and will *reject* any attempts to send messages with a
From: address that doesn't belong to you (which means it's broken for
the 'forward as redirect' operation, and I don't see any way to fix it).

What address(es) will your server accept when you attempt to send mail?

Does it make you send using the exchange.xx.yy.zz address, and then
rewrite it to the unit.xx.yy.zz address automatically? Or do you send
using the unit.xx.yy.zz address?

Your current configuration uses the unit.xx.yy.zz address, but has the
URL which was obtained with the exchange.xx.yy.zz autoconfiguration?
Have you tried to send mail yet?

 I have no doubt that the setup at my work is bizarre so I doubt it is
 worth it, or even possible, to alter the code to accommodate it.

I suspect it's not *that* uncommon. Nobody in their right mind would
really want to have an Exchange system facing the public Internet;
wouldn't you *always* want it behind some kind of buffer server?

 Finally, you've labeled this as an Alpha release - do you have any idea
 of the timescale for getting it to beta and ultimately to stable?

Within 2-3 months, I hope. If that.

The mail side has reached the point where we are using it exclusively
for our work email instead of imap/smtp. I've been doing so for the last
couple of months, in fact.

Read-only calendar support is already working, and we've fixed a few
long-standing bugs in Evolution that our QA team found when testing
that. We are currently working on write support for the calendar, and
personal addressbook support. And on a few nasty implementation details
that we postponed until after the Alpha release.

Natty 11.04 has Evolution 2.32 by default (will be released in a week or
so) and there are PPAs for 2.32 for Maverick 10.10.

Best way IMHO is to distribute Ubuntu software via a PPA.
https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA. Probably works good for Debian
and others with apt too.

I will do some digging if I can find someone interested in creating a
PPA with ews.

[Evolution] [ANNOUNCE] Evolution-EWS (Exchange Web Services) Alpha release

2011-04-19 Thread David Woodhouse
Exchange Web Services is the SOAP-based protocol that obsoletes MAPI, as
of Exchange 2007.

We are pleased to finally announce that the EWS support for Evolution
has reached our Alpha milestone.

It can be downloaded from
ftp://ftp.infradead.org/pub/evolution-ews/ 

... or from the git repository at
git://git.infradead.org/evolution-ews.git
http://git.infradead.org/evolution-ews.git

The same code will work with *both* Evolution 2.32 and Evolution 3.0
(and master).

At this point, it should be fully functional for email. You can read and
delete messages, create/copy/rename/move/delete folders, and the
read/answered/forwarded state of messages should be synchronised back to
the server correctly. Completion of addresses from the Exchange
directory (GAL) is also working.

Read-only calendar functionality is also working — you can view your
calendar and any attachments there may be on calendar entries.

We will be working on completing the rest of the calendar read/write
functionality, and also on the *personal* addressbooks which are not
currently supported.

Testers and developers welcome...
