Re: [Evolution] Cannot select several contacts simultaneously when composing new message



This is one of the TODO's for 2.6. Please look into

using Evo 2.4.1 on Fedora Core 4 here.

In past versions, I could use the SHIFT key to select several contacts
at once and add them to To: or Bcc: fields, in the pop-up dialog window
that appears when one clicks on To: button.

Now I have to select each address at once, which is very frustrating
because frequently I need to send messages to a pool of dozens of
contacts in my "Friends" address book and I always need to leave several
of them out, according to the message content. What I did previously was
to select all contacts with SHIFT and then use CTRL to take out the ones
I didn't want to send the message.

Is there any way to get the previous behaviour back?

If this did work in previous versions, please file a bug in
bugzilla.gnome.org and mention the fact it's a "regression".

It's how it works in 2.0.4  -in case anyone needed confirmation ;)

Just checked with Evo 2.2.x, selecting multiple recipients in that
dialog isn't supported in this version.

Anyway, the "if" part in my previous post was aiming at the regression
thingy only. Feel free to file bugs nonetheless. :)
