Re: [Evolution] MAIL FROM timeout
Hi Milan, I'm on 3.10.4. Obtained through the repos that Mint use, so probably the Ubuntu repos. I'll try an update/upgrade in a few minutes. Thanks for the heads up :-) Michelle.

Re: [Evolution] MAIL FROM timeout
Just did an update/upgrade. Still at 3.10.4. Looks like I'll have to stay here until the repos catch up. Thanks for the heads up, though. Now that I know there's an issue in this ball park, I know to sit and wait. Michelle.

Now that I know there's an issue in this ball park, I know to sit and wait. Or you test, if building it yourself should work, or you try to find a PPA providing the needed backport. You can try to build it by one of the ways described below. Backup your install, then $ sudo -i # apt-get source evolution-data-server # apt-get build-dep evolution-data-server Then replace the source with the source from upstream, IOW download and extract it and change into the evolution-data-server dir. # nano debian/changelog # nano debian/rules I don't remember what changes to do, but IIRC it's easy to notice. Use what ever editor else you like. # libtoolize --force --copy --automake # aclocal # autoreconf # debuild -b -us -uc # dpkg -i evolution-data-server* Assumed building a package that way shouldn't work, try # ./configure # checkinstall --install=no # dpkg -i evolution-data-server* instead. Then do the same with evolution. Don't forget to install the dev packages for Evolution's dependencies first. JFTR I didn't build for Ubuntu/Debian since a long time, it's easier for Arch Linux, the distro I use most of the times. ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

That will be the next release of Ubuntu/Debian, unlikely that it will be upgraded within one release. However, did you check official backports? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports http://backports.debian.org/ # apt-get build-dep Might or might not install all dependencies. build-dep source_pkg Causes apt-get to install/remove packages in an attempt to satisfy the build dependencies for a source package. - http://linux.die.net/man/8/apt-get ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

Michelle. Looks like a sysadmin problem. I suspect it is checking in dns blacklists / doing SPF checks, and they are taking a long time. Perhaps it is consulting an overloaded dns blacklist? ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

Perhaps it is consulting an overloaded dns blacklist? I agree that something like this is the likely cause. The email administrator should probably bypass spam and virus checks for mail being sent by authenticated users or those on internal trusted networks. Unless there is a problem with infected machines trying to send spam and viruses. In which case the admin needs to set up an email system just for receiving internal mail and forwarding it to the scan systems. Once the email server has a message it doesn't matter how long the checks take because it can just keep trying to send it. ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
