I can only suggest you run 'evolution' from a terminal and see if it
spits out anything.

It could be gtkhtml related, or not ...

I setup Evolution on my parents debian box some time ago, and until
recently everything was working fine. Then for some reason evolution
would not quote a message when they went to reply to it. It didn't
happen all the time or in all folders, but now it doesn't provide a
quote at all anymore.

Was using version 1.2, and have now installed version 1.4 from debian
unstable. I've un-installed/purged, remove settings, re-install, all to
no avail. Does anyone have any idea or clue on whats going on and how to
fix it?

Thank you for your time.

Good question, i'm not too fond of this new behaviour either, but
there's probably a reason for it.

There's certainly no option to control it.

I presume you mean under the folder tree?

All i can think of is that the 'folder-metadata.xml' files in each
directory are somehow emptied or broken.

Any warnings when you start it from a terminal?

They should contain something like this (for each folder):

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<efolder>
 <type>mail</type
 <description>Some description</description>
</efolder>

(at least, for mail folders)

I wont comment on the validity of this approach, but what you're after
is 'regex match' and not 'expression'.  I can't remember if 1.0.x had
it.

'expression' is for an internal evolution-filtering expression in its
s-expression language.  It should probably be marked more clearly, or
just removed ...

Hello,

I'm using evolution 1.0.5 on debian/woody and trying to implement
filters against spam.

Everything's OK when using filters on subject.

I want to filter all messages having "unknown" in the "Received:"
specific header.

I can't use the "specific header" option because this header is repeated
many times and "specific header" looks only in the first occurence.

So i'm trying tu use the "expression" option

When i put something like ^Received:.*unknown.* in the expression's
value, i obtain an error dialog while filtering.

This dialog says : "unexpected token encountered ..."

If somebody can help


Thank's

There's a reproduceable phenomenon which occurs e.g. when I resize the

Drives my wife nuts -- she edits a newsletter that involves copying text
from tons of tiny emails into one large email. She's discovered a weird

Yup, under the folder tree I see the folders themselves, but opening one
of them known to have (or supposed to have) filed mail shows nothing at
all. Yet, way down under the evo/mail dir I can find the actual contents
that should be there.

"Warnings" are somewhat peculiar. I get no errors at all during startup.
But ever since I upgraded (with red-carpet the other day), various
components of evo have been crashing left and right. There seems to be
no rhyme or reason in how and when things crash - just this morning
while updating a contact, it crashed. Yesterday composing a reply, it
crashed. Sometimes the component dies, other times the entire app dies.

This is very onerous - I've got semesters worth of email from students
that I need to get access to.

Thanks for your reply.

did you install XD2? I've heard that "Installing Evolution without
installing XD2 is asking for problems", so just checking.

if you have, please send us backtraces of your crashes so we can fix
them.

I've run it on as little as a celeron 400 w/ 128 megs of ram (a gig or
so of mail). (used to develop on that box until it died and I replaced
it with my current athlon box)

I'd say that the more mail/data that you expect evolution to manage, the
higher the hardware requirements will be.

It should be under ~/evolution/local/

The ~/evolution/mail directory is used for various meta-data purposes.

"Warnings" are somewhat peculiar. I get no errors at all during startup.

You have to run it in a terminal to see the warnings?

It would be very very unlikely that the mail has been physically lost.


Also, if you have important data, you should always back it up (you
never know when a hdd will die, for example).

Well, there is the Contacts database missing. There should be a file
addressbook.db in this directory.

As (if) there is really no such file, you cannot loose anything. You
could try removing the Contacts and recreating it (both using
Evolution). You will have to set them in the Settings as autocompletion
source again.


What does your folder-metadata.xml files contain, do they look sane?

$ cat evolution/local/Contacts/folder-metadata.xml
