I've made it identical to the official Evolution password dialog so that it should fit into the overall design.

I'd like to throw up a dialog box in my Zimbra Connector for Evolution when a server's SSL certificate is bad. I was going down the path of using gtk_message_dialog_new(...), but it doesn't seem to be working. So I have two questions: 1) Is there a better way of notifying the user of SSL certificate problems than using gtk_message_dialog_new? I've had the same problem in e-b when trying to get input (passwords) from the user. I ended up coding a separate helper application that displayed the dialog. No other way to do it I'm afraid...

Re: [Evolution-hackers] Not able to choose Sent folder
Zimbra Connector for Evolution just reuses the IMAP camel provider to handle email.

[Evolution-hackers] converter for x-user-defined ?
Hi, Could anyone tell me the potential reason(s) behind the following eds warning : Could not open converter for 'x-user-defined' to 'UTF-8' charset ? It occurs within the camel_folder_select or camel_folder_refresh_info when using the imap provider before any mails have been read.

[Evolution-hackers] No Reply All for Evolution (3) ?
Hi Many novice users don't understand the Reply and Reply All buttons, so they often pick one at random or always use just one of them. Just think of people that reply to chain letters. A solution to this could be to remove the Reply All button from the main toolbar and have only one send button like now, but the user is presented with a list of the recipients if there are more than one. A mock up of this could be: || | The email that you are about to send have more than one recipient. | | Please choose who shall receive this email.| |_ | | |v| Elvis Presley ([EMAIL PROTECTED])| |_ | | |v| Bob Dylan ([EMAIL PROTECTED])| |_ | | |_| Leonard Cohen ([EMAIL PROTECTED])| |_ | | |_| Alan Stivell ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) | |_ | | |v| Nick Cave ([EMAIL PROTECTED])| || |[Return to composer] [Send] | || or || | The email that you are about to send have more than one recipient. | | Please choose who shall receive this email.| || | To CC BCC None | | _ _ _ _ | | (o) (_) (_) (_) Elvis Presley ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) | | _ _ _ _ | | (_) (o) (_) (_) Bob Dylan ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) | | _ _ _ _ | | (_) (_) (_) (o) Leonard Cohen ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) | | _ _ _ _ | | (_) (_) (_) (o) Alan Stivell ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) | | _ _ _ _ | | (_) (o) (_) (_) Nick Cave ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) | || |[Return to composer] [Send] | || The benefit of this idea is that is no longer need to a Reply All button. It could be made into a complete recipient chooser if it is combined with the address book. So sending an email would have these 3 steps: 1. Press Reply 2. Write email 3. Choose recipient(s) What do you think? Martin ___ Evolution-hackers mailing list Evolution-hackers@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers

Believe me, majority of the users prefer avoid too many questions and dialogs before any operations they requested. Especially if one has to fill up such a dialog before start replying to an email, many may not prefer to hit a reply at all ;-). -Srini.
