Hello Peter, I've been running Evolution 1.4.5 on Solaris 9 for the last 3 weeks, including Calendar, Tasks and Contacts, and synchronization with a Handspring Neo via a serial cradle. Here is my experience: First convince the installer that it should install Evo on your machine.
uname -sr
SunOS 5.9 Compile the attached C program:
gcc -fPIC -G -c uname.c ld -G -o uname.so uname.o LD_PRELOAD=uname.so # or wherever you put it RELEASE=5.8 export LD_PRELOAD RELEASE
At this point, uname should return 5.8
uname -sr
SunOS 5.8 You can now use Ximian's installer,
wget -q -O - http://go-solaris.ximian.com |sh
Then you want to make sure that the runtime linker knows
where to look for the new libraries, and extend your PATH,
so add the following to your .bashrc (or equivalent if
CShell user):
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:/opt/gnome/lib
PATH=${PATH}:/opt/gnome/bin
(if you don't set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH, the E-mail component
seem to work but not the Contacts).
I seem to remember that libiconv was not installed automatically,
so I pulled it from Ximian's site:
ftp://ftp.ximian.com/pub/ximian-evolution/solaris-8-sun4/libiconv-1.5-ximian.3.sparc.rpm
and installed it,
rpm --rcfile /opt/gnome/lib/rpm/rpmrc libiconv-1.5-ximian.3.sparc.rpm
As a bonus, red-carpet is also available. Other issues: I've had the Contacts crashing on files that were transfered from Linux, so I started with an empty contact folder and it works fine now. Synchronization with the Palm works fine, except that libmal_conduit seem to be missing, therefore, I am using malsync to synchronize AvantGo; ah, and libmemo does not seem to work either ... Otherwise, it seems pretty stable, and I just wished that Sun would have released this with an update of Gnome; it's Christmas day you know ... Hope this helps, All the best!

But even though "spamassassin" prints tagged output on command line, it doesn't look like Evo brings that back in into it's system. So question is: How can I (by using either spamc or spamassassin) filter all my mail, get verbose report from software and filter on those headers? Running FreeBSD 5.1, but same problem applied to RHL9 when I used Evo there.

Evo filters can't alter message headers/content, except for those implemented as filter actions (colors/labels, importance, read/unread status).Might it then be possible in the Action side, after having determined it is spam, use either "run shell script" or "pipe ..." and then run spamassassin once again? :-) If not, isn't this a feature *everybody* would want, making it possible to filter and modify the mails locally as much as we want? Isn't that a good thing anybody would love? It doesn't seem to be too much work, at least. -- Jakob Breivik Grimstveit, http://www.grimstveit.no/~jakob, +47 48298152 --__--__-- Message: 4 Subject: Re: [Evolution] SMTP, EHLO, and 502 response From: Dan Winship <danw ximian com> To: Chad Brigance <definity geo yahoo com> Cc: evolution lists ximian com Date: Tue, 23 Dec 2003 08:31:09 -0500220 smtp011.mail.yahoo.com ESMTP EHLO sts. 250-myhappysmtp.server.com --- snip --- notice the extra line between 'EHLO' and the server's response.It's a glibc bug.

Let fetchmail pipe your mail through spamassassin and then have evolution pick your mail up from there. You could then define filters on the added headers. It's a bit cumbersome but if you really want that kind of detailed control over your SPAM this is the only way AFAIK, but again you should really get more detailed and 'official' info about this.
