But that dirty hack doesn't live in *every* back end; it should live in the higher level instead, and then the back ends just get a normal move message request instead. 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 message came from, so you cannot *undelete* it. But I think that's what Exchange/Outlook users are used to, so I think that's what we'll do. 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?

For what would it be with NNTP provider, for example? 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. -- dwmw2 ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

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. -- dwmw2 ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

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 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...

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 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. -- David WoodhouseOpen Source Technology Centre david.woodho...@intel.com Intel Corporation ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

I believe there *is* someone building 2.32 packages for it? Perhaps they could build Evolution-EWS packages too? 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.

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.
