Hi,
I'm using evolution from Jan 30 (self compiled) and found some errors
(some of them
exist for a long time):
- Mail filtering does not work if the line contain german umlauts
(perhaps generally 8 bit characters). A sender like:
Jörg Backmann <joerg backmann xyz de>
is not handled correct with a filter on xyz.de. A mail from
Joerg Backmann <joerg backmann xyz de> is handled correct with the
same filter
- Send Later causes evolution to loop with 100% CPU, the mail is lost
after killing evolution.
- The status box for incoming mail sometimes stops at some percent
<<100%. All the mail is read, and it works fine after finishing the
box with ok, but it's very misleading if the indicator is not
finishing.
- I think, there is a problem with name servers and evolution if the
name servers are changing. I'm using a laptop and have different
mail accounts. I'm getting my mail since about 2 months via
fetchmail, because evolution was not stable enough. But I'm sending
my mail directly via smtp with evolution. The hostname resolution is
done via name server which I get via dhcp. So sometimes, when I'm
changing the network segment and the location where I am, different
smtp addresses are known, because they are only internal and not
visible (even from dns) from an outside location. Evolution is not
able to take this switch, I have to restart it. (BTW, fetchmail also
doesn't do the job.)
- Now, there is a possibility of handling different mail accounts with
a flag for choosing a default one. That's nice. Is it possible to
have an additional flag for activating and deactivating a mail
account temporarily?
Regards,
Heinz-Josef Claes
