Sadly I don't use any broken email programs to be able to test it ;)

Special words come in handy, to sort on projects. Like the [Evolution]
in the subject in this list -- you even can filter on words in the body.
In principle: yes. But, usually the project name is not in the subject
or body of the email. I think it is then not possible to apply a
reasonable filter.
OK, I admit there are cases, where filtering may not work.
However, as you wanna filter *outgoing* mail, *you* are writing the
mail. What I had in mind is one of the following methods and should not
do any harm on closed projects:
1) Set a special [project-x] to any subject (at the end for more
convenient subject reading) and filter on them. This very likely will
survive replies.
2) You even could do something similar in the body, first line for
example.
Using flags like this are a lot faster, than struggling with the mouse
at all and selecting a folder.
I'm looking for a button ("folder to copy sent mail") which will open a
dialog to choose an email folder where the email I send will be stored.
If I don't press the button, the default folder (sent) will be used.
I think I have to put this on the wishlist.
Honestly, I don't get the point, where this should be faster, than using
the currently supported style:
Have you considered placing the default sent messages folder (and maybe
the project folders) on the shortcut bar[1]? You can move the mail by
drag-n-drop to the folder tree or the shortcut bar, to sort them easily.
Maybe this is a practicable way for you right now?
...guenther
[1] The shortcut bar can have small icons to hold more of them. And you
can create new shortcut groups.

Subject: [Evolution] custom recurring appointment
Hi,
I'm using Ximian Evolution 1.4.3 on gentoo linux and I'm trying to
create a recurring appointment. I see that you can set the recurrence
for none, simple, or custom. But the custom recurrence radio control is
ghosted so that I can't use it. Is there a way to enable this feature?
Or is this a feature that doesn't exist yet in Evolution? BTW, what
options does the custom feature provide? I'm trying to create a
recurring appointment that happens on the third Friday of every month.
Thanks in advance.
J.

Hi all,
I have a desktop which uses Evo as the MUA. I am installing Linux onm
an obsolete IBM thinkpad. I am planning on using Evo on the laptop too.
However, I have no idea how to synchronise email (including accounts,
contacts and the like) between the 2 machines. Any clues and/or ideas
gratefully accepted.
The mail files, etc. are just files. If you accept different mail on
both machines, you'll have to find some special way to sychronize them,
but if you sync-the files, receive mail on *only* one, then
sync-the-files you could just use "rsync" to keep the files up to date
between the machines.
If you sync, receive mail on one, receive *other* mail on the other,
want-to-sync, you can't use the synchronize-the-containing-files
approach. You'll have to come up with something more exotic, like
writing a program to extract mails from the files on both machines and
merge them.
Evolution does allow importing a mail, etc. file - perhaps that merges
duplicates. I haven't tried it.
Cheers,
Bret

I somehow managed to mess up my fonts (noticed this in Evolution),
currently using 1.4.4 in Gnome 2.2. Could someone tell me what the
defaults are so I can change this back (and where to change it, again).
Tools - Settings - Mail Preferences - General tab
Message Fonts
mine has the "Use the same fonts as other applications" box checked.
greyed out selections are "Sans" and "Monospace"
Also, while I'm on fonts, whenever I receive HTML formatted email that
contains apostrophes (or other special punctuation), my fonts render
these as 'octals' (at least that's what it looks like). Where can I
change this as well?
Thanks a lot!

Custom is greyed out because you're not able to create a custom
recurrence. However, you can import an appointment with a custom
recurrence from iCal or another calendar program.
The recurrence you want is actually a simple one: choose simple,
monthly, third, Friday.

Hello!

It's that time again... We have reached a critical mass of fixes, and
we are planning to make an Evolution 1.4.5 tarball on September 12 (it's
a Friday), for a full binary release sometime in the week following
that.
=20
The release will be made from the following modules, all from the
evolution-1-4-branch:
=20
gal =09
gtkhtml=09
evolution
=20
Stable snapshots are available on Red Carpet for a bunch of platforms.=20
Since we are close to release, this is a good time to install them and
let us know whether we broke anything. ;-)
=20
Translators: we have broken strings again :-( , so we hope this advance
notice will give you time to update the translations... Please let us
know if you need more time; in order to make sure your translations make
it to the final release, you should commit them by the end of Thursday
(GMT) at the latest.
=20
Thanks for your contribution!
=20
Bye,

However, just started playing with this topic, as I got curious. This

$ perl -ne 'print "$1\n" while ( s/([\w.-]+@([\w-]+\.)+\w{2,})// )' ~/evolution/local/Inbox/mbox
Better:
egrep -vi '((Message-ID)|(References)|(X-Evolution-Source))\:' ~/evolution/local/Inbox/mbox | perl -ne

Still by no means perfect.
