My ubuntu 10.04 pc crashed (hardware). The hard drive from the old computer would not boot in the new machine.I am able to access the data on the old hard drive, and I was able to copy the .evolution folder from the old hard drive to the new one. How can I get the mail, and contacts from the old hard drive to appear in Evolution on the new pc running Ubuntu 10.10.
View 1 RepliesI tried to use evolution as mail manager for my yahoo account,and now it works but there is really big problem for me. Evolution sucked and deleted ALL messages I had on yahoo so now I can't find them with any other computer except this one ! This is really bad because I'm on the move all the time and it is impossible to access my contacts or reply to some message from cell phone for example ! Can I somehow recover all inbox from evolution to yahoo mail ?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI was running CentOS 5 with VMware Server on top of it. The system died and I'm trying to recover the VM images. The system died with a 'end_request: I/O error, dev' type message. It looks to me like the 2nd partition is wonky - is that correct? The GRUB portion does boot. I pulled the drive out and plugged it into my Ubuntu box to see if could get to the files. I ran 'fdisk -l' and found:
--------------------------
Disk /dev/sdb: 400.0 GB, 400088457216 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 48641 cylinders
[code]....
To me this shows the GRUB boot partition and the system drive - correct? Next I created a mount point and tried 'mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt/recover' At that point I get a
mount: unknown filesystem type 'LVM2_member'
Here's where I'm a bit lost. I believe I need to add filesystem support to my Ubuntu box. I've been looking but have yet to find something that says the default filesystem of CentOS 5 is <blah>. After I do find that info, how do I install the filesytem support to read the drive?
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 wiped Windows and am running 10.04 exclusively. 32 bit, when setting up evolution e mail account i dont see where to enter password....where is it? anyone have link with screenshots? i know i can use regular hotmail but want to know how to use default ubuntu programs.
I still can't find a spot for password. options are, login, set preferences and a remember password checkbox but nowhere to enter a password
My wife's Windows Vista laptop crashed and now will not boot. It is a Compaq and when we turn it on it loads into the HP recovery program. The only option is to format the drive and reinstall windows.
We can't do this however because we need to extract the files for my wife's college classes. I was told that you can use an Ubuntu Live CD to access these files so I burned a CD with 10.10 on it. It access's the computer and it appears to access the folders from the hard drive but all the folders are empty. Also the partition appears empty as well.
I found a thread on here that mentioned that the file system needs to be closed for it to be mounted but the computer had to be forced shut down so that isnt an option. Also i read something about chkdsk /f.
I wanted to know the solution that if my linux crashes then can I recover my windows in adual boot env.

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?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI always install the Ubuntu Updates that automatically pop up every few days.
Today I installed the update and it wiped out my entire Evolution database.
The Evolution e-mails and e-mail history are still there, but not a single Contact.
Is there any way to 'uninstall' today's update or go back to a time before it was implemented?
Is anyone else having this problem? I do have a database backup, but its about a month old. So I don't want to import it unless there is no way to get the current version back.
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?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI was working on a report, when my computer crashed, flashing caps lock, completely frozen. Had to power it off. I had saved my work, shortly before it froze.
When I restarted, I tried opening the file, and it asked if I wanted to recover, I though why not and it recoved the file as purely #'s, except the very end which read.

I regularly saved the file. Is there are way I could get a previous version of the file. Is there any way I can get the last saved version of the file, before openoffice tried to recover it.
I did a bit of work on it with koffice, any chance that that has a backup of it?
Any change any of the text can be recovered from the file.
I will upload the corrupt file with this post.
If anyway can restore it I would be soo greatful. I have tried googling but I can't find any methods which work.
I cut paste sys folder, tmp folder, and many more folder to a backup storage place , after that folder icon and other icon converted into txt icon , i can make any folder but can't access, can't open storage, thrash disappear, terminal icon disappear, and also the application and places and system icons, after that someone suggested restarting may help but i can't restart it , so i unplugged the power wire and replugged it and restarted the system but it can't open , all things comes fail, and show INIT: "x" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes. after each 5 mins this msg is repeating
View 4 Replies View RelatedI had fedora 13 installed on my computer which is used a server for my php development. I had all my projects on that server. Not sure what caused this but my linux is not loading at all. It tries to load the kernel but fails and restart the machine.I confirmed that there is no hardware failure. I am planning to reinstalling fedora on the machine but I can't loose my projects which were in /var/www folder and the /home directory. Unfortunately I didn't take back for last 1 month.I wanted to know:
1) Is there any way I can recover the data for www and home folder
2) If I reinstall the fedora again then will it delete my old data on machine.
Really in a difficult situation as my projects development is halted due to this. Want to have some advice before reinstalling fedora.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI 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 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 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?
I created a signature, for my outgoing mail, in Composer Preferences but it don't show when I create a new mail. how to get the signature in my outgoing mail, it would be nice to share.
