Software :: Evolution Mixing Up Mail Metadata
Jan 5, 2011
This may be due to a case (non-)sensitivity issue. I have two subfolders on the mail server called "Spam" and "spam". On the mail server (Dovecot), these are directories ".INBOX.Spam" and ".INBOX.spam". The issue I am seeing is that the information shown in the index area of Evolution's window has, for some mail, information that belongs to other mail in the other folder. But when I click on that line, I see the corresponding correct email that should be in that position.
Because this happens to be spam, I just went ahead and trashed everything in one of the folders. That one action trashed everything in both folders.Is there a way to tell Evolution to dismiss everything it thinks it knows about the state of mail on the mail server and re-acquire it all? Or could this be an IMAP server issue with Dovecot?

I've been running the Evolution mail system under Fedora-15/KDE for about a month now, and it has some very serious problems. I just noticed that it is available for SUSE, and figured that since KDE is the principal desktop supported by KDE the SUSE version may be fixed. Before I go through the very tedious process of getting the SUSE version to compile on Fedora, I'd like to know whether anyone has seen these problems with the SUSE version of Evolution:It ignores font control from the KDE Settings->Applications Appearance window, both KDE font control and GTK+ font control, also its own internal font control window.
It has trouble sending messages to an SMTP server, sometimes taking a l-o-n-g time, sometimes timing out. This can be temporarily cured by restarting it It crashes when a filter attempts to refile an outgoing message. It often asks if I want to recover messages that have never been lost. It often locks up receiving mail from a remote POP3 server. I can live with these, except for items 1 and 2, since I have workarounds. If you are fairly sure that you have not seen these problems with the SUSE version of Evolution

I have set up postfix and dovecot as per the Ubuntu anual and appear to have a functioning mail server.Using the sendmail command I can send mail and I receive mail in ~/Maildir. Using Thunderbird I can read any mails received but I can't send any mail from Thunderbird. I have tried with both STARTTLS and SSL/TLS and whilst I get the prompt for a password I keep getting the message my password for my server is wrong.I have ports 25, 465, 587 and 993. Is that all the right ports?When I ping my domain name it resolves to my router name whereas I believe it should resolve to my IP. Could there be a problem with my host file? I've had a play but to no avail.Here's the error in mail.log.
Code:
westwood@westwood-desktop:/etc$ tailf /var/log/mail.log
Jun 1 19:00:33 westwood-desktop postfix/smtpd[2376]: warning: localhost.localdomain[127.0.0.1]: SASL LOGIN

After running Pine remotely to view some mail on the server, I can no longer access those emails remotely with Evolution or Outlook Express. I know the mail is still there on the server someplace, because it still appears in Pine's "INBOX" folder. But that is clearly not the same as the "Inbox" folder for that account which appears in Evolution and Outlook Express, which is now empty. How can I configure Evolution to re-access those emails?

Is there a way to get Evolution to check mail and chat with a standard Yahoo (or Hotmail for that fact) account, without having to pay for the plus service?

Ubuntu 10.04. I want to change the startup sound and the mail alert sound (incoming mail) for Evolution Mail Client. I go to System > Preferences > Sound, and all I get are themes preset. I do not have option to browse to wav files. I also do not see a browse option in Email Settings. Do I have to change an actual file?

I currently have Evolution 2.24.5 on Fedora 10, but I'm not happy with Evolution. I can't update to 2.30.1. So, Is there a better mail program, ie Thunderbird or SeaMonkey?

I am new to this forum and essentially new to Linux, (I used unix between 95 and 99) but the cobwebs are still very thick. I installed Ubuntu 10.10 on an extra PC. I have it pretty much as I would like it now, except for email. I am trying to use Evolution and it is sending mail fine. I cannot receive email. I believe this is because my DSL provider, Windstream.net, says
they support only Outlook and Windows Live mail. I could be way off base, but it seems that it should be able to work. When I mentioned Linux, it basically shutdown their help. I have email through them on Windows 7 on another PC. Is there some way around this so I can use the email address xxxx@windstream.net ? Oh, they use pop3 and require authentication, which is what I have configured. I do not get any error messages, just never get the email. Perhaps another email package?

I've just installed Fedora13, created my email account on email settings.... but when I open evolution, everything is greyed out.
I did however installed web server also as I'm developing with joomla and needed php and sql for testing purposes. Could that be the problem?
On evolution, the big red button on the toolbar saying "cancel current mail operation" does nothing and is the only thing I can press. All else is greyed out.
KMail was working, just for a test.

I have just upgraded to F11 (from F9) and most things work pretty well. I can't read DVDs or CDs but I see there is another thread open on that, and VMWare-player has a few problems but otherwise I an a reasonably happy camper. The "new mail notification" in Evolution won't play my sound. Other sound apps work OK (mplayer, amarok etc) and I can play the .wav file in question simply by hovering the mouse over it in Nautilus - so I know it's not a general sound problem (and besides - I have followed Silpheed2k's guide here). In the Evolution plugins dialogue the sound file is selected, but the test button doesn't play it and when new mail arrives the other notification methods (pop up message + blinking icon) work just fine. It worked in F9 with the same sound file.

I did install FC 11 without problems. The only thing I don't understand is the following.
Viewing some messages, the character apostrophe'is not displayed.Charset is "iso-8859-1" which is the default in my Evolution as well...
Subject:
=?iso-8859-1?Q?SURCOUF_:_Votre_commande_N=B0__6323352_-_Mise_=E0_disposit?=
=?iso-8859-1?Q?ion_de_facture?=
Date: Fri, 23 Oct 2009 23:14:24 +0200

Checking the source of the message I can read at some place :
Le Sp=E9cialiste de l=92 Informatique=0A=
what is displayed without apostrophe as =92 is shown as a blank square (not printable character) On the other side I see the following source in same message :
t=E9l=E9charger directement et gratuitement sur le site de l'=E9diteur =0A=
what is displayed with the apostrophe: I don't know why the character apostrophe is sent as =92 This did not happen within FC 10 or the earlier Evolution

I had a problem with my OpenSUSE with Tumbleweed repository enabled that required me to do a hard power off of my ASUS N61JV-X2 notebook PC. I had Evolution running at the time. When I did a cold boot of my laptop and I ran Evolution again, it does not display my e-mail messages anymore. In fact, I had to install Mozilla Thunderbird with the Enigmail extension so that I can read and write e-mail messages.
How do I fix Evolution so that it will retrieve and display my e-mail messages and I can write new ones using this software package?

Something very weird happening with email stuck in my outbox. I am on Ubuntu 9.10 and Evolution 2.28.1
I have about 8 email boxes set up - all IMAP, all on different domains, and across several ISPs. My primary ones have been working fine since I first set up Evolution about 3 weeks ago.
The less important ones had problems (I could receive but not send). I've started to address these ones and am making relevant changes to SMTP server settings etc and they seem to working now.
However, one of my primary addresses seems to now be queueing email in the outbox and not actually sending it. I did not consciously make any changes to that profile while I was fixing the other accounts. I thought there might be an issue with my ISP, but having waited overnight to resolve any potential problems, I see I still have the same problem.

I am wondering if I set the /home/user/.evolution folder to synchronise with ubuntu one on my eee, and then when I update the desktop remove the /.evolution folder and replace it with the one synchronised with ubuntu one would all my setting and messages be copied as well or not? And no I can use Imap as I use that dreaded thing known as hotmail! My desktop is running 8.04 but is due an upgrade soon so I can test my idea out!

I had been using Evolution with no issues though until I installed Ubuntu 10.04 after which I could no longer send outgoing messages. I use a hotmail live account with Evolution. I have also just installed Evolution 2.30 from 2.28 to see if that would solve the issue, but it did not.

I was wondering if there was an alternative to evolution for my email and calender. I tried Thunderbird, but it is too slow to start up and evolution also is too slow, I'm looking for a simple, fast, mail reader with a calender, that shows up in the indicator panel applet.

Just installed Kubuntu 10.10, configuring it now. The problem is, that I would like to use KMail, but I've got to import the settings, mailbox etc. I made a backup through Evolution, wich ended up as a .tar.gz. I tried to open it though the KMail backup program. But it just won't load the mails or lettings. It just doesn't work. I tried Evolution 1.x backup end Evolution 2.x backup. Both didn't work.

Ever since I upgraded to 10.10 my Indicator Applet will no longer notify me of new mail. I'm not sure if this is an issue caused by the update of Ubuntu or Evolution.
I've tried removing and adding it again, but no luck. Anyone else having this problem or have a fix?
