It might be something like aforementioned python or JavaScript or anything, what can decipher the GObject introspection (if Evolution would produce anything like that).

Re: [Evolution] Evolution Macro Plugin
Hi, thank you. I'll look at this sample. by macro script I mean an integrated programming language, I can used to customize Evolution behaviour "in a kind of simple way". Don't feel offended but something like vba for outlook. bye stephane Message initial De: Milan Crha via evolution-list Répondre à: Milan Crha À: evolution-list@gnome.org Objet: Re: [Evolution] Evolution Macro Plugin Date: Wed, 10 Jun 2020 12:19:22 +0200 On Wed, 2020-06-10 at 11:57 +0200, Stephane Passignat via evolution- list wrote: I think I'm reaching the end of this approach.

Are there any macro script I havent > found ? Which kind of account are you using? You could configure evolution to "send by sendmail" but then point it to a wrapper that performs such checks and abort if not met (in which case you would go back to the composer and change the sending address). However, that requires you to convert a "sendmail sending" into your outgoing mail, so it won't work for a EWS account, you might have issues setting up OAUTH in that sendmail interface, etc. Best regards ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

[Evolution] Evolution Macro Plugin
Hi, sometime ago I posted a message to prevent sending emails to recipient from an account. eg: don't send professional email from personal account. I tried changing the sender account feature in the settings but I can't make it work and if I understand well it will change the sender account "silently". I would prefer having a popup requesting confirmation and allowing to change the account. I think I'm reaching the end of this approach. I looked at macro script but I haven't found. Are there any macro script I havent found ? I looked at plugins code but I havent programmed in C for decades. Any ides on how and what to do ? thanks stephane ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
