 I'm trying to write a php script that will create mail accounts in
 evolution.
 So far, everything works fine and I seem to have all changes to files
 identified and covered, and all file and folder creation taken care of
 in the .evolution folder and .gconf folder.
 
 However, I'm having the problem that .gconf/apps/evolution/mail/%
 gconf.xml is being reverted when evolution is started up.
 
 I am stopping all evolution related processes, and all instances of
 gconfd-2 (if that one matters)
 I was told I need to stop gconftool-2, but that isn't running on my
 system.
 
 What am I missing that causes the file to be reverted, or replaced with
 a first run version?

Use gconftool instead of hacking the files directly.  If you hack the
files directly, you are asking for trouble.

   it never seems to work.
  Are these supposed to be 3.14? What is the RIGHT way to fix them?
  
  It might be easier to just install packages from Fedora's development
  repository (soon to be Fedora 8).

 Thanks Matthew - except that on F7 there seems to be a packaging
 problem. If I yum update evolution --enablerepo=development (and add
 evolution-exchange via rpm) I get:
 undefined symbol:  g_once_init_enter_impl

 $ yum update glib2\*  --enablerepo=development


 errors on starting evolution.
 I will try a liveCD of f8 and see if evo 2.11 works nicely before
 installing it.

  OK, I am a little nervous about upgrading to rawhide glib...
  But it seems to work.
   I like the nice new email notification. Is evolution faster? Maybe.
More stable? I'll find out...
Thanks guys,

Re: [Evolution-hackers] Central Delivery for Mail

 Hello all,
  
 I posted this on bugzilla, but was referred to here (actually, if I would 
 have known about this list I would have posted it here first…sorry).
  
 First, I would like to start off with the fact that I'm more than
 willing to write the plugin that I'm requesting; I just wanted to make sure 
 I'm not redoing some work that others have already done (plus, look for some 
 advice on where to start).  

 At the moment, with Exchange, I am able to pull mail from all my POP accounts 
 into a central mailbox, using Outlook's little deliver mail here config 
 option, 

 where here in this case is my exchange mailbox.
 Thus, it is actually quite advantageous for me to use POP instead of IMAP,
 because I only have one mailbox to keep up with and back up.  Plus, the email 
 is cleaned off of the pop servers and stuck on my own server, 

 where it's backed up regularly .  
  
 Now, this could be emulated, plugging in an IMAP folder for an exchange 
 folder.  Basically, one could introduce the same deliver mail here dropdown 
 configuration menu into the configuration for Evolution.  In this case, a 
 locally configured IMAP folder (or local folder of course) would be the 
 destination choice.  Outlook's feature actually could be trivially improved 
 by making a per-POP-account configuration, but whatever.
  
 Either way, is this doable through your plugin framework?  I don't know how
 abstracted away the imap folders are, but it seems like it should be trivial 
 just to add a hook into the receive process that copies it to an IMAP folder 
 instead of the local storage.  I noticed that you can drag and drop emails 
 from the local storage to IMAP folders, so the framework is there, I just 
 need to call it, right?  \

May be you can just create a filter, which will copy/move all the
incoming mails in IMAP to your Exchange Inbox.

If you are specific that you want to make it a plugin, instead of trying
to make a hook, etc., you can write a plugin that adds a new filter to
the existing filters-list. 

In the configure-options for your plugin, you can make it to choose
whichever folder each account should have for deliver mail here.

The plugin manual is available at
http://www.gnome.org/projects/evolution/developer-doc/eplugin/

  
 Thanks for your help :).  I'm seriously itching to shedding off the last 
 thing that is tying me to Windows.

Re: [Evolution-hackers] Central Delivery for Mail

2007-08-09 Thread Matt Hollingsworth
Sankar,

That helps considerably; I'll probably end up making a plug-in, just to make
it as convenient as possible.  It doesn't sound too difficult, and I might
as well make it easy, in case anyone else is interested in doing it. 

Thanks for your help!

-Matt
