[Evolution] mails retrieved through davmail disappear
Hi, I'm using Evolution 3.16 to access work email through davmail (because I have to), with IMAP/CaldDAV/LDAP. My problem is that on mail receive, I see a notification with the Subject line of the new mail, when I enter the corresponding INBOX I see briefly that the mail arrived but it disappears after like half a second. And then the only mean to really see it is to quit Evo and restart it. Does that ring any bell ?

When I go in the cited text of such an email and press Enter, the inserted line has still the “” at the beginning. And I cannot delete this symbol.

If the original email is HTML formatted then this sort of thing happens - and more specifically it's to do with the table and div structure. Basically if the text is part of a table or a div container, then when you add text to it, the HTML interpreter of the editor still thinks the text you've added is part of that container and so puts a quote marker in front. The annoying thing is that this still happens even if you aren't replying using HTML. What is the reason for this behaviour and how can I get around it? The underlying reason for it is that the editor is sub-optimal - I think there have been long term plans to replace it, but I don't know how far that is advanced. As a work around you can highlight the text that you want to reply to in the original email, then hit reply. This will only copy the text without the underlying HTML formatting. You can also select the quoted text, and press the Indents the paragraph less button (on my old Evo, it's the 3rd button from the right, on the lower button bar (see attached screenshot).

Re: [Evolution] Incoming message filters and IMAP

But if i get new messages they don't get colorized. My current guess is, that evolution only uses it's filters on incoming mail which lands in the local Inbox like it would be, when i use POP3 to fetch my mails. But i'm using imap, so maybe evolution isn't applying the filter rules on IMAP-Accounts? Just a guess, couldn't find real information anywhere else, so i'm asking here. It works in your INBOX, if you select the right setting in the preferences (something like apply filters to incoming mail, but I'm also guessing as it's in French here).

CalDAV is an HTTP protocol so changing the prefix is not an issue - it is, after all, just telling the program how to communicate with the server and so long as Evo knows what to do, then it doesn't matter. Some would probably say that caldav: is more correct than http: FWIW, it has always worked fine for me with various flavours of Fedora. Hmm... The RFC for caldav (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4791.txt) doesn't specify any caldav://-scheme, and simply refers to URLs of webdav servers, such as http://cal.example.com/home/bernard/calendars/. In this case, the webdav server is behind SSL, so if this is to make any sense, at the very least there should be a caldavs://-scheme, to signify that the default port is 443 and the connection should be done using SSL. I think it could reasonably be considered a bug that https:// is converted to caldav:// I haven't tried this myself, but it seems from my quick Google-search that it /may/ work to try the URL caldav://some.domain.com:443/caldav/st/home/mark.cur...@domain.com/calendars/MyCalendar (I guess the plugin somehow detects the SSL?)

For now, If I delete an email using evolution, this email doesn't appear anymore on my webmail in any folders, so I lose the advantage of IMAP over POP? * What I think I've understood : The duplicates I mentioned before are virtual folders so they don't really exist. If I delete (or mark as junk) an email, this email is simply marked but not removed (not move to another folder)? But why don't they appear online once they are marked? If an email is marked as Junk on Evolution, should it be the same on the webmail client? * What I've done : I tried to create some filters to automatically move my emails from: - the virtual folder Junk of myaddr...@free.fr to Junk (online folder? with a not so pretty icon) of myaddr...@free.fr - vfolder Sent of On My Computer to Sent of myaddr...@free.fr - vfolder Drafts of On My Computer to Drafts of myaddr...@free.fr and I didn't find the way to do the same for Trash : - vfolder Trash of myaddr...@free.fr to Trash of myaddr...@free.fr Unfortunately, the workaround doesn't work for any of these cases :-( For instance, the filter for Sent is a filter for Outgoing such that the following condition must be met : Source Account is myaddr...@free.fr Well, I hope you have understood my issue. I would love to understand why Evolution adopt this behaviour and not what I expect to be right (again I have never used IMAP before)? Thank you in advance for you answers! From what I know: - there are 2 ways of deleting emails with IMAP: - some MUA use the IMAP /Deleted flag (like Evolution Does) - some MUA move them in a real Trash folder (Zimbra I guess) That's configurable in some webmail MUA (roundcube allows both), so maybe you can configure Zimbra to do it the Evolution way. - the Sent folder is a true folder in both cases, only Evolution defaults to put it locally, not on the IMAP server. You can configure it in your account settings, choose the remote IMAP folder for Sent - ditto for Draft - Junk is a special one, but if I were you I'd disable the spam plugins in Evolution (there are 2 of them, bogofilter and spamassassin), and only rely on Free.fr's spam filtering, which is already quite good.

Otherwise Ubuntu is a good choice, working pretty much out-of-the box, easy to administer and featureful.

[Evolution] WebDAV for contacts

Can anyone spot if there's a problem with the syntax, or if it's an Evo bug ? (in which case I'll do a proper bugreport). The syntax is wrong. It looks like the mailer that sent it tried to do content quoted-printable line wrapping, which is totally incorrect in this context! The string can't contain any spaces, including linear white space. The whole token is supposed to be less than 76 characters for this purpose, so that any folding (wrapping on multiple lines) is outside the token boundaries. From rfc2047, the relevent rfc, it is pretty clear and quite explicit about how the headers should be interpreted. Subject is a text field. 6.1. Recognition of 'encoded-word's in message headers A mail reader must parse the message and body part headers according to the rules in RFC 822 to correctly recognize 'encoded-word's. 'encoded-word's are to be recognized as follows: (1) Any message or body part header field defined as '*text', or any user-defined header field, should be parsed as follows: Beginning at the start of the field-body and immediately following each occurrence of 'linear-white-space', each sequence of up to 75 printable characters (not containing any 'linear-white-space') should be examined to see if it is an 'encoded-word' according to the syntax rules in section 2. Any other sequence of printable characters should be treated as ordinary ASCII text. We more or less do this exactly, but we relax it slightly - we do no length checking. And while i'm at it: 6.3. Mail reader handling of incorrectly formed 'encoded-word's It is possible that an 'encoded-word' that is legal according to the syntax defined in section 2, is incorrectly formed according to the rules for the encoding being used. For example: (1) An 'encoded-word' which contains characters which are not legal for a particular encoding (for example, a - in the B encoding, or a SPACE or HTAB in either the B or Q encoding), is incorrectly formed.

Re: [Evolution] Unable to relay outside my own domain
If you used use SSL when possible before, it has been transformed to use TLS with 2.8 and causes errors on SSL SMTP servers. Just change it in your accounts settings.

Re: [Evolution] Colors Vanishing with IMAP
Le mercredi 18 octobre 2006 à 09:14 -0700, Dominik Slusarczyk a écrit : I use filters in Evolution to assign colors to messages in my IMAP inbox. I've discovered that when I connect to the IMAP account with another client---in this case, Apple Mail, but I'd previously observed this behavior with Horde's IMAP webmail client---Evolution forgets about the colors. Important flags remain, but colors get reset entirely. Does anyone understand why it happens? Is there a workaround that will let me make Evolution remember about the color assignments between connections from another client? I'm waiting for this feature for years now :) Server-side colors for Evo would be excellent.

[Evolution] Evo 2.8, new IMAP code new vertical split-view
Hi, I have installed Evo 2.8 on my desktop and laptop (debian ubuntu) since a few days, and I have a quick comments to do: - on the desktop (big 24 screen) the vertical split-view is really better. I don't use the 2-lines-per-message presentation, but otherwise this (long-awaited) change is really welcome. - on the laptop, the IMAP code has never been particularly good but in 2.6 it was really awful to the point of being unusable: Evo was constantly refreshing its IMAP folders. In 2.8 it works well and I'm not forced to use the webmail anymore. There are still little weirdnesses in 2.8 (e.g. no more selected message after pressing DEL) but overall I like it. Thanks a lot guys ! Xav ___ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

Hi, I have received a mail (from Outlook) with an attachment splitted into 9 mails. There's a header that looks like: Content-Type: message/partial; TOTAL=9; ID=[EMAIL PROTECTED]; NUMBER=1 (with the last digit increasing for each mail). Evolution couldn't decode it.

Hi, I have a problem with my newsgroups since 2.4.something. I have waited for 2.6.0 to appear in debian because I thought it could have been fixed there but no. My problem is I can see all newsgroups starting with a (alt.*, etc.), one starting with de and one starting with fr. Even if I try refreshing the list from the server it doesn't change.

The only way to ensure that all teh changes have been pushed to the imap server is to quit the program. Killing it does not achieve this - so logging out without stopping evo would have the same effect. BTW, are there any plans to fix the IMAP code ? Between that problem and the fact that it's a pain to use with a slow connexion to the server, it would greatly benefit from a bit of love.

Re: [Evolution] Keeping states
There was a very interesting feature i used to use in evolution 1.x and i cannot find it in evolution 2. This feature is to keep the state between folders, for example, i was in a subfolder, reading an email and scrolled to the middle. Changing the folder to a new one and launched a search and read the result. When i come back to the first subfolder in version 1.x i used to be in the same email, the same scroll position. Now in version 2.2 it's not the case. IIRC Evo 1.x had a different widget per folder, mapping and unmapping it on request. So all the state associated with the widget was kept. Nowadays Evo has 1 widget that it repopulates when switching folders, and the amount of saved state is of course not the same. As Guenther said, file a bug !
