[Evolution] Evolution dark theme + 'reply' imposes dark theme in message

2016-11-15 Thread Michael Wenyon
I am using Evolution 3.22.2 in Debian testing. If I set Global Dark Theme 'on' in Tweak Tools, or if I set the GTK+ theme to Blackbird, then every time I 'reply' to a message with a white body, Evolution changes it so it has a dark theme: dark background, light text etc.  I would not mind if

Re: [Evolution] Using Evolution with Exchange

2015-12-04 Thread Michael Wenyon
You are correct: I had a 'jessie' repository mixed in with all 'stretch' ones. My system is actually on stretch, and my Evolution is v3.18.2. When I removed the jessie repository, Synaptics showed me no evolution-ews at all, consistent with what you suggested. I guess I will just have to wait

[Evolution] Using Evolution with Exchange

2015-12-03 Thread Michael Wenyon
I am on Debian Jessie. Should I be able to use an Exchange server by setting it up in Gnome Online Accounts, or do I need to install other packages first? If I try installing evolution-ews in Synaptic, it fails, and I get the following error: evolution-ews:  Depends: libebook-contacts-1.2-0 but

[Evolution] Debian Jessie to Stretch upgrade worth it for better Evolution

2015-07-25 Thread Michael Wenyon
My Evolution was freezing, requiring a restart. I upgraded from Debian Jessie to Debian Stretch. It was worthwhile: the Evolution v 3.16.3 included in Debian Stretch works well for IMAP Mail, Contacts (OwnCloud) and Calendar (OwnCloud and iCloud). :-)

[Evolution] Evolution unresponsive using 'autocomplete', triggers re-download of WebDAV address book

2014-05-19 Thread Michael Wenyon
Autocomplete of addresses during message composition in Evolution is generally slow for me, and in common usage can freeze, and/or stop working, and can cause my WebDAV address book to re-download the complete book from the WebDAV server. Re-download of my 2,700 entries takes time (10 minutes+),

Milan: thank you, but I am struggling in trying to carry out your suggestions. I had to install gdb, then launch Evolution, then run the command you suggest in Terminal. The bt.txt file begins with this: warning: Could not load shared library symbols for linux-gate.so.1. Do you need set

Re: [Evolution] Evolution unresponsive using 'autocomplete', triggers re-download of WebDAV address book

Just to add that this is also happening with Evolution 3.12.2 (to which Debian Jessie updated today). Same problem: works at first, but attempting to edit entered characters provokes a freeze of more than a minute and the WebDAV address book starts downloading again from empty. Michael

[Evolution] Evolution unresponsive using 'autocomplete', triggers re-download of WebDAV address book

2014-05-17 Thread Michael Wenyon
Autocompleting addresses is generally slow for me, and often freezes or stops working, then causes my WebDAV address book to re-download from the WebDAV server. Re-download of my 2,700 entries takes 10 minutes+, during which autocomplete does not work (it makes no suggestions). Autocomplete often
