I have just started using evolution (1.4.3 on MDK9.1).  I ahve been a long 
time user of kmail, however, evolution has caught my eye of late (since the 
gnome2 version), and I just set it all up.  However, I've got a couple of 
questions.  Hopefully someone here can help.

First question:

I have a shell script that I want to execute on certain emails.  The shell 
script takes a filename as an argument.  In kmail, I could pass the email 
body to the script as the first argument by putting:

scriptname %0

in the shell command action.  The %0 is a reference to the body of the email.  
%1 is a reference to the first attachment and so on.

Is there a similar scheme in evolution?  Can't find anything in the 
documentation.  Is there another way to pass the email to a script.

Currently you can only do this with filters, and in that case the
content is passed in via stdin (a simple script can be used to make it
behave as above if required).

But you can't select a message and pass it to a script.

Second question:

I have a palm m130, which I want to sync with evolution.  I've got this set up 
to sync with kpilot at the moment, and have previously used jpilot quite 
happily.  However, evolution is giving me some problems.  I can get gpilotd 
to get my id from the palm.  I can also get it to successfully sync with the 
test conduit.  However, when I synchronise with the econtacts conduit, I get 
about 20 vcards loaded (of about 100 or more), and then gpilotd segfaults.  
Anyone know what the issue might be?  Is this a known bug?

Hopefully someone else can help here.
