[Evolution] Problem transferring address list from desktop to netbook
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi --- I've been using Evolution on my desktop for years now, to manage an email list for my choir. Currently it is Evolution 3.12.7 on an Xubuntu 14.10 machine. I have acquired a used EeePC 1000HE, running LinuxMint Cinnamon 17. I set up Evolution on that machine, transferred my settings etc. via USB, and was able to log in to the choir email account on gmail IMAP and receive and send email from it. Tryng to import the address book however was not successful, either by copying the address book folder or by exporting the desktop's address to a vcard and transferring the vcard file to the netbook via USB. The version of Evolution on the netbook is 3.10.4, if that makes any difference. - -- B.

Just in case you've forgotten, your original password was included in the Welcome message that was sent when you subscribed. Wayne That was many years ago and is long gone. I eventually got a reply from one of the admins, to the effect that he couldn't find me on the members list. He suggested I resubscribe. I attempted to do so, but the subscription was rejected on the grounds that I was already subscribed! Your subscription request was rejected because i went ahead and added you to the list before you tried to subscribe. Somehow my replies are not getting delivered in time. The initial mail where i replied to you, delivered to you after 4 days and you thought nobody (admin) cared about your email. OK. I still don't know why my original subscription had disappeared, but that's life. I reported all this to the admin. He never replied but after a day or two I suddenly started getting list traffic. I did reply you but mail was bounced with below error The message that you sent was undeliverable to the following: p...@usb.ve (450 p...@usb.ve: Recipient address rejected: Greylisted for 5 minutes) As I'm sure you know, greylisting is a common anti-spam measure. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greylisting. Our mail server applies it to every incoming message from sources it hasn't seen before. Legitimate sources are expected to retry after the timeout (5 minutes) and are allowed through (where the mail is then examined by SpamAssassin, but that's not relevant here). This is standard behaviour for MTA's on seeing a 450 error (mailbox unavailable), but spammers don't bother. We eliminate 80% of incoming spam this way, as do many other sites. The odd thing is that that this wasn't the first message you sent me, and the first one did get through after a long delay, so I wouldn't have expected this one to be greylisted (although greylisting has its own timeouts). I'll need to check with our server admin. I'll also ask him to check his logs and the headers of your messages to see if anything explains the long delivery times. Thanks for the clarification in any case. 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
[Evolution] Problem with the list?
Yes, I know list problems should be reported to the admins but I've already done so and received no response whatever, not even an ACK. See below. The situation is as follows: I have seen *no* traffic from the Evo list since April 10, 2011. I've been very busy in recent weeks and hadn't noticed, but then I did notice a week or so and tried to find out what was going on. First I went to the admin page at https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/options/evolution-list (with the idea of checking if I'd turned off delivery and forgotten about it). Since I had naturally forgotten my list password, I requested a new copy. Nothing happened. I requested it again. Nothing happened. (repeat 4 or 5 times over the course of several days while recalling Einstein's remark that repeating the same experiment over and over and expecting a different result is a sign of lunacy). I wrote directly to the list admins indicated on the above page, asking them to please copy any reply to a personal address in case something was wrong at my end. Note that I didn't ask them to send the password to that address, just to confirm that I was still a registered user. I sent a message (Evo 3 conversion seems flaky) a few days ago, confirmed that it reached the archives but was not returned to me. I installed a .forward file in my mail server to copy everything to the secondary account before any filters could mess with it. I asked the server admin to check his logs for the past week. Nothing has been received from the Evo list server. I'm now sending this to the list as a last resort. If anyone knows of a problem with the Mailman installation, or has a way of asking the admins directly, I'd appreciate knowing about it. Obviously I won't see replies to this via the list (though I'll look at the archives page from time to time) so please CC me directly. Call it a special case :-) 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

Just in case you've forgotten, your original password was included in the Welcome message that was sent when you subscribed. You can also try sending a message to evolution-list-requ...@gnome.org with help in the subject or body. If that's working for you (I just tried it and got a response) then you should be able to manage your password using that interface. Interestingly I just browsed my own mailman settings page for this list and even though I have the Get password reminder email for this list? option set to Yes, I don't seem to have ever received any. In fact the last reminder I can find for any @gnome.org lists is from 2004. Wayne P.S. This problem is another example of why sending a courtesy copy to the participants of a discussion is the superior strategy. ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
