Re: [Shotwell] Geary: tiny foto of sender in mail header

Sven,

first, I'm not sure whether you meant to send your message to the Shotwell mailing list.  Questions about Geary should go to the Geary mailing list at 

https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/geary-list

As for your question, I believe that user photos in Geary come from Gravatar:

http://gravatar.com/

This should really be documented in the Geary help, but apparently is not.  cheers -

Hi,

I have a lot of contacts but just one of these shows in the messages a tiny foto on the left side of the mail header stuff. He says, he didn't do anything special, he even was surprised that his foto is shown in my mail headers.

Where is this foto taken from? Google account? I know he has an google account, but mail was sent using the work account. If Google, why just one contact? I have more Google account contatcs, without foto ..:-(

Any hints where to look at or which key words to use for searching the issue?

thanks,
Sven
