[Evolution] Losing settings
1. When I update new settings in Calendar etc they are lost when I shut down evolution and restart it. How can I save settings permanently please? 2. Every time I start or refresh Evolution it re-downloads all messages etc, which takes a long time. Why cannot Evolution just update the NEW messages only (like in Thunderbird etc)? Thank you for the wonderful Evolution.

Could be that your mail server is broken, or that your Evolution settings could be changed. > Thank you for the wonderful Evolution.

That's very suspicious. It makes me wonder if there's something wrong with your setup. Have you changed the default location for Evolution? Is your home directory writeable? Are there any relevant entries in the system log? Maybe try running Evo from the command line and looking at the terminal output. poc ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
[Evolution] Restrict recipient domains
Hi, I have several email accounts setup in evolution, several private, several professional, ... When I send email, I want to make sure I use the proper mail account for the recipient. Is it possible to have a popup on send, when the domain or address of at least one recipient is not "associated" to the sender account ? thanks, Stephane ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

There is very few options about HTML behavior but nothing about Plain Text Mode... Checked also on various menu.

There are too many possibilities to handle. Yes, I had a significant background on HTML/CSS but had to quit just when HTML5 pop out, because brain damage. I totally figure out what you say. But you'r telling me that you cannot overide fancying with conditionnal events about standardised background & font, wich sound weird to me. It would be great to have a button to break formating and switch black <> white <> normal as sender, for inbox and edition windows. Because no need to wait to be disabled to have seeing issues nor italic magenta trouble. I'm not in anymore, just simple thoughts.

[Evolution] Sometimes can't verify signature
Evolution is able to verify the gpg signature on some messages but on other messages it says "Error verifying signature: Failed to execute gpg." I have not been able to get it to tell me any details about the error. When I run CAMEL_DEBUG=all evolution > foo.txt the resulting file does not contain "gpg", "Error verifying signature", or "Failed to execute gpg". It does contain "GNUPG" in two places which both only say status: [GNUPG:] NODATA 4 Is there a way to get it to output the actual gpg command it is executing and the output from that command? Also, I don't see a way to export the signature, just to help me investigate (no attachment bar or anything). Is there one? (FYI: Content-Type: multipart/signed; micalg=pgp-sha512; protocol="application/pgp-signature"; ) Evolution 3.34.1-2 (Thunderbird/Enigmail verifies the signature no problem) ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
