[Bug 262538] Re: Kontact / Kaddressbook 3.5.10 : mail-list disappeared + impossible to create
@Gil I haven't really ever been using the distribution lists in KMail so I actually don't know. You could try to jump into the #kubuntu channel at irc.freenode.net and see if anyone there knows it. -- Kontact / Kaddressbook 3.5.10 : mail-list disappeared + impossible to create https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/262538 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 262538] Re: Kontact / Kaddressbook 3.5.10 : mail-list disappeared + impossible to create
Hello, everyone. Getting in late on this discussion. I'm new to Ubuntu and not at all skilled in command line work in Linux, so I hope you'll be patient with me. I had KMail working wonderfully in Ubuntu 7.10. Three extensive mailing lists, all easy to edit and use. But when I upgraded to 8.04.1 those lists disappeared, and I cannot figure how to get them back. I have read all the comments in this thread, and I have also communicated with Tobias Koenig at kde.org who told me about the kabcdistlistupdater. Tobias suggested that I contact my distributor and ask to have it included. Unless I am missing something obvious I don't see that as a practical solution, and certainly not one that will get me fixed NOW! I cannot find kabcdistlistupdater anywhere in 8.04.1, but then maybe I'm not looking in the right places for it. I looked in the Synaptic Package Manager and also in the add/remove software feature. Nothing. :o( I'm desperate to get back my mailing lists as my business depends upon them. I have even tried recreating the lists but, as mentioned above, the mailing list creation tool in kaddressbook 3.5.10 (KMail 3.5.10) simply does not work. Help!! Anyone have the solution? And if it involves command line work a walk-through **really** would be appreciated. Thanks!

$Gil kabcdistlistupdater is installed together with kaddressbook from version 4:3.5.10-0ubuntu1~hardy2 an onward and is set to auto-start one time after being installed. You can run it manually afterwards by opening the terminal and running kabcdistlistupdater. -- Kontact / Kaddressbook 3.5.10 : mail-list disappeared + impossible to create https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/262538 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Andreas, many thanks! That was SO simple. :o) If I want to create a new mailing list or edit an existing one, is there a way to drag-and-drop e-mail addresses into the distribution list? I tried both creating a new list and editing an exiting one and found that I have to manually type in the new addresses. Thanks.

[Bug 262538] Re: Kontact / Kaddressbook 3.5.10 : mail-list disappeared + impossible to create
Hi Andreas, I didn't try the Kmail version packed with the helper... I've finally jump to KDE 4.1 with a new fresh installation of Kubuntu Intrepid. The only thing i've done is reinstalling my old kmail directory and the files kmailrc and kadressbookrc in the new .kde dir. I've looked in these files, and no reference to any distribution list was found. I've also imported my saved .vdf contacts files... So I tried to recreate my distribution list, and surprise it doesn't work, with the same symptoms than with Kadressbook 3.5.10 (it is now in version 4.1). What's going on ? Is it the same problem than previously ? How to fix it now ? I fear that even if kadressbook is in version 4.1, the program is roughly the same than 3.5.10 with same bugs... Thanks a lot for great job.

[Bug 262538] Re: Kontact / Kaddressbook 3.5.10 : mail-list disappeared + impossible to create
Hi Mathieu korganizer has changed to using a new distribution list format; and as your mail lists was created in an old version they can't be read by a new version. The distribution list updater in kde 3.5.10 solves this problem by upgrading your distribution lists to the new format. I'm not sure if the list updater will get into kde4, but as everyone upgrading to intrepid/jaunty should do this via a fully updated hardy this should prevent any further cases from happening. In your particular case you could try moving your korganizer directory back to a kde3.5.10 installation, update the lists, and move it back (is a good idea to keep a backup if this doesn't work as expected). -- Kontact / Kaddressbook 3.5.10 : mail-list disappeared + impossible to create https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/262538 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 262538] Re: Kontact / Kaddressbook 3.5.10 : mail-list disappeared + impossible to create
Humm the fact is that I've reinstalled a fresh new system (Intrepid) and did not try to import any distribution list. And I still cannot create new one with the newly installed Kontact (Kmail, Kaddressbook...). So I think there is nothing to do (this time) with the old/new format issue. It is just that I cannot create new distribution list.

Sounds unrelated, yes. You can file it as a new bug report if it isn't already reported; please remember to check which version of korganizer you are running when reporting (works in 4.1.3 for me). -- Kontact / Kaddressbook 3.5.10 : mail-list disappeared + impossible to create https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/262538 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kdepim in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

[Bug 262538] Re: Kontact / Kaddressbook 3.5.10 : mail-list disappeared + impossible to create
I have got the helper application to compile, and it now works. I have reproduced the situation by creating a distribution list in gutsy and upgrading to hardy (the list is still there) and after enabling hardy-backports the list disappears. After installing the new version with the helper application, logging out and in again, the list is back in place. I'll have a debdiff ready soon. ** Changed in: kdepim (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Andreas Wenning (andreas-wenning) Status: Confirmed = In Progress -- Kontact / Kaddressbook 3.5.10 : mail-list disappeared + impossible to create https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/262538 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 262538] Re: Kontact / Kaddressbook 3.5.10 : mail-list disappeared + impossible to create
The helper add from the kde-svn is pretty unfinished atm. so it is not worth using. I'll probably keep an eye on the svn commits and see if it gets fixed. This problem only affects mail lists created in kde 3.5.8 or prior versions; so fresh hardy installs is not affected. ** Changed in: kdepim (Ubuntu) Assignee: Andreas Wenning (andreas-wenning) = (unassigned) Status: In Progress = Confirmed -- Kontact / Kaddressbook 3.5.10 : mail-list disappeared + impossible to create https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/262538 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kdepim in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

Hi Mathieu Kdepim has got a new distribution list format. In upstream kde svn they've added a helper application to migrate from the old list format to the new list format. I've build the package with the helper app included: http://awen.dk/packages/kde3.5.10/kdepim/ Please test the package and see if you get your mail lists back. I've tested and cannot reproduce the problem with adding distribution lists, but as this might be due to your current lists being the old format, please test and report back whether this is fixed also. ** Changed in: kdepim (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) = Andreas Wenning (andreas-wenning) Status: New = In Progress -- Kontact / Kaddressbook 3.5.10 : mail-list disappeared + impossible to create https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/262538 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is subscribed to kdepim in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
