- <para>
- We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free
- software, because free software needs free documentation: a free
- program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms that the
- software does. But this License is not limited to software manuals; it
- can be used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or
- whether it is published as a printed book. We recommend this License
- principally for works whose purpose is instruction or reference.

- <title>Setting up your synchronization system</title>
- <para>
- Synchronization presents you with two issues you'll need to
- deal with. The first one is pretty simple: you'll need to get
- the data to move among the various devices you're using. If
- you've already got <application>Gnome-Pilot</application>
- working, then all you have to do is tell it to use Evolution
- as a conduit. If you haven't used
- <application>Gnome-Pilot</application> before, you'll need to
- run the GNOME <application>Control Center</application> and go
- through the hand-held device setup assistant. Then you can
- create the Evolution conduit and press the hotsync button.
- </para>
- <para>
- If that doesn't work, jump up and down several times and swear
- loudly. Then make sure you've got
- <application>Gnome-Pilot</application> going to the right
- device (for my serial port, it's /dev/ttys0, not the default
- /dev/pilot) and that you have read and write permission on
- that device. If you don't you'll need to be added to whatever
- group has those permissions (for my system, it's tty).
- Alternately, if you're the only user of your computer and
- don't care too much about security, just use
- <command>su</command> to become root, and then use
- <command>chmod a+rw /dev/[DEVICENAME]</command> to set
- universal read and write permissions on that port&mdash; just
- don't tell your sysadmin I said you could. (Sysadmins, of
- course, would never do such a thing.)
- </para>
- <para>
- Once <application>Evolution</application> knows where to get
- the mail, address, and calendar data, it needs to know what to
- do with it. When you synchronize your local data with the data on
- a server or handheld device, you may run into conflicts:
- perhaps you have ended up with two cards with the same name
- and different addresses, or old mail that has been deleted
- from one device but not the other. What if you want to keep
- only the most recent mail on your hand-held or your laptop,
- but all the mail on the LDAP server or your desktop machine?
- Select the <guibutton>Synchronization</guibutton> tab from the
- <interface>Preferences</interface> window to set up the
- conflict resolution preferences.
- </para>
- <para>
- You can set <application>Evolution</application>'s
- synchronization behavior in the following ways:
- <!-- LIST HERE -->
- </para>
- <para>
- <warning>
- <title>Data Loss Prevention</title>
- <para>
- It's always a good idea to make a backup. If you set your
- synchronization behaviors wrong, you could end up deleting
- the messages and cards you want to keep, and keeping the
- ones you want to delete. Before you change these
- preferences, make a backup of your

- <title> What is Evolution, and What Can It Do for Me?</title>
- <para>
- The idea of evolution as a process of improvement and
- development is a strong influence on the developers at Helix
- Code. We named our <glossterm>groupware</glossterm> suite
- "Evolution" because we knew that it would be able to survive
- in the wilderness of the software marketplace for one reason:
- it's better.
- </para>
- <para>
- <application>Evolution</application> is a suite of groupware
- applications within the GNOME desktop environment that you can
- use to send, receive, and organize email, manage address and
- other contact information, and maintain a calendar. It
- enables you to do those things on one or several computers,
- connected directly or over a network, for one person or for
- large groups. <application>Evolution</application> can handle
- almost all your communications tasks with the power and
- flexibility of the GNOME desktop environment.
- </para>
- <para>
- We built <application>Evolution</application> with three groups of
- people in mind: everyday users, system administrators, and
- developers.
-
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- For <emphasis>everyday users</emphasis>, we made
- <application>Evolution</application> easy to use without
- sacrificing power. We made the interface familiar and
- intuitive, but also allowed users to customize it to
- their liking. We made the setup and configuration as
- easy as possible. For any confusion, we wrote a
- comprehensive manual and help system.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- For <emphasis>administrators</emphasis>, we made sure
- <application>Evolution</application> met and and
- exceeded the standards set by currently available
- groupware products, and we developed support for most
- major network protocols so that it can integrate
- seamlessly with existing hardware and network
- environments. All of our efforts have made
- <application>Evolution</application> both easy to use
- and easy to support.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- For <emphasis>developers</emphasis>, we built in
- support for open standards and protocols to turn
- <application>Evolution</application> into an advanced
- development platform. From the simplest scripting to
- the most complex network and component programming,
- <application>Evolution</application> offers developers
- the ideal environment for cutting-edge application
- development.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- For all three groups, we did our best to ensure the
- safety of data.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- </itemizedlist>
- </para>
- <para>
- In action, <application>Evolution</application> makes most
- daily tasks faster, because we built it to work with you
- instead of against you. For example, it takes only one or two
- clicks to enter an appointment or an address card sent to you
- by email, or to send email to a contact or appointment.
- <application>Evolution</application> makes displays faster and
- more efficient, so searches are faster and memory usage is
- lower. People who get lots of mail will appreciate
- advanced features like <link
- linkend="usage-mail-organize-vFolders">vFolders</link>, which
- let you save searches as though they were ordinary mail
- folders.

- <title>Scheduling With the Evolution Calendar</title>
- <para>
- The <application>Evolution</application> calendar allows you to
- schedule events for yourself or a group of people. It can
- handle events that repeat, event lengths from ten minutes to
- multiple days, and events that have a date but no specific
- time. You can set overlapping events, although
- <application>Evolution</application> will warn you about trying
- to do two things at once. You can also set event reminders so
- that you don't forget about everything you've just put into
- your calendar. Basically, it can handle almost any schedule you
- throw at it.
- </para>
- <sect2 id="usage-calendar-apts-basic">
- <title>Creating events</title>
- <para>
- To create a new calendar event, select
- <guisubmenu>New</guisubmenu> and then <guimenuitem>
- Appointment</guimenuitem> from the <guimenu>MENU</guimenu>, or
- click the <guibutton>New</guibutton> button on the left end of
- the toolbar. The <interface>New Appointment</interface> dialog
- will pop up with the usual menu bar, tool bar, and window full
- of choices for you. I'm going to skip the the more
- self-explanatory items, like the <guilabel>Summary</guilabel>
- and <guilabel>Owner</guilabel> of the event (which is probably
- you), and cut right to the more intersting ones.
- </para>
- <para>
- Your event must have a starting and ending date &mdash; by
- default, it's today &mdash; but you can choose whether to give
- it starting and ending times or to mark it as an <guilabel>All
- day event</guilabel>. For the purposes of the calendar, an
- <guilabel>All day event</guilabel> begins at ten in the
- morning, runs until eleven at night, and is displayed at the
- top of a day's event list rather than inside it. This allows
- you to include events of shorter duration within it. A
- conference might be an all day event, and the various lectures
- might be timed events that happen during the all day event.

- <title>The Evolution Contact Manager</title>
- <abstract>
- <para>
- The <application>Evolution</application> contact manager can
- handle all of the functions of an address book, phone book, or
- Rolodex. Of course, <application>Evolution</application> allows
- easier updates than an actual paper book. <application>
- Evolution </application> also allows easy synchronization with
- handheld and remote devices. Since
- <application>Evolution</application> supports most major network
- protocols, including <glossterm>LDAP</glossterm>, it's easy to
- use over an existing network.
- </para>
- <para>
- Another advantage of the <application>Evolution</application>
- address book is its integration with the rest of the
- application. That means that when you look for someone's
- address, you can also see a history of appointments with that
- person. Or, you can get an e-mail with contact information in
- it and create a new address card on the spot. In addition,
- searches and folders and all work in the same way they do in the
- other components, so you don't have to learn another system for
- similar tasks.
- </para>
- <para>
- This chapter will cover using the
- <application>Evolution</application> contact manager to organize
- any amount of contact information, share addresses over a
- network, and several ways to save time with everyday tasks. To
- learn about configuring the contact manager, see <xref

- <guilabel>Other Fax</guilabel>, and
- <guilabel>Pager</guilabel>. Select from among them to
- determine which four telephone numbers to display at any given
- time. Of course, these connected times mean that people often
- have more than four telephone numbers. You can display only
- four in the editor, but <application>Evolution</application>
- can remember them all for you. When you click the little

-
- <sect1 id="usage-contact-organize">
- <title>Organizing your Contact Manager</title>
- <para>
- Organizing your contact manager is a lot like organizing your
- mail. You can have folders and searches the same way you can
- with mail, but the contact manager does not allow vFolders. It
- does, however, allow each card to fall under several
- categories, and allow you to create your own categories. We'll
- go over categories in a bit.
- </para>
- <para>
- Another useful UNIMPLEMENTED
- <application>Evolution</application> feature is its ability to
- recognize when people live or work together. If several people
- in your contact manager share an address, and you change the
- address for one of them, <application>Evolution</application>
- will ask you if you wish to change the address for all of them,
- or just for one.
- </para>
-
- <sect2 id="usage-contact-organize-group">
- <title>Groups of contacts</title>
- <para>
- <application>Evolution</application> lets you put cards into
- folders and mark them as members of different categories.
- Although the contact manager does not support vFolders,
- categories should provide as much flexibility as you need in
- grouping your address cards.
- </para>
-
- <sect3 id="usage-contact-organize-group-folder">
- <title>Grouping with Folders</title>
- <para>
- The simplest way to group address cards is to use folders.
- By default, cards start in the
- <guilabel>Contacts</guilabel> folder. You can create more
- folders inside that one, or create other address book
- folders as well. Each card must be in one and only one
- folder. If you've read <xref linkend="usage-mainwindow">
- then you already know that you can create a new folder by
- selecting <guisubmenu>New</guisubmenu> and then
- <guimenuitem>Folder</guimenuitem> from the
- <guimenu>File</guimenu> menu.
- </para>
- <para>
- To put a card into a folder, just drag it there from the
- folder view, or (SOMETHING ELSE). Remember that address
- cards can only go in contact folders, just like mail can
- only go in mail folders, and calendars in calendar folders.
- </para>
- </sect3>
-
- <sect3 id="usage-contact-organize-group-category">
- <title>Grouping with Categories</title>
- <para>
- The other way to group cards is to mark them as belonging
- to different categories. The difference between folders
- and categories is that folders contain cards, but category
- membership is a property of each card. That means that you
- can mark a card as being in several categories or no
- category at all. For example, I put my friend Matthew's
- card in the "Business" category, because he works with me,
- the "Friends" category, because he's also my friend, and
- the "Frequent" category, because I call him all the time
- and can never remember his phone number.
- </para>
- <para>
- To mark a card as belonging to a category, click the
- <guibutton>Categories</guibutton> button at the lower
- right. A dialog box will pop up with check-boxes for
- different categories in it. You can select as many or as
- few categories as you like.
- </para>
- <para>
- Then, you can refer to all the cards in that category by:
- </para>
- <para>
- If the master list of categories don't suit you, you can
- add your own. Just enter the new category's name in the
- text box, then click <guibutton>Categories</guibutton>e and
- choose <guilabel>Add to Master List</guilabel> in the

- <title> An Overview of the Evolution Mailer</title>
- <para>
- <application>Evolution</application> email is like other email
- programs in all the ways you would hope:
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- It can sort and organize your mail in a wide variety of ways with
- folders, searches, and filters.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- It can send and recieve mail in HTML or as plain text, and
- supports file attachments.

- <para>
- It supports multiple mail sources, including IMAP, POP3,
- and local mbox files.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- </itemizedlist>
- </para>
- <para>
- However, <application>Evolution</application> has some important
- differences. First, it's built to handle very large amounts of
- mail without slowing down or crashing. Both the <link
- linkend="usage-mail-organize-filters">filtering</link> and <link
- linkend="usage-mail-organize-search">searching</link> functions
- were built for speed and efficiency on gargantuan mail
- volumes. There's also the <application>Evolution</application>
- <link linkend="usage-mail-organize-vFolders">vFolder</link>, an
- advanced organizational feature not found in other mail clients.
- If you get a lot of mail, or if you keep every message you get
- in case you need to refer to it later, you'll find that feature
- especially useful.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- You can start reading email by clicking
- <guibutton>Inbox</guibutton> in the shortcut bar. By
- default, the <interface>Inbox</interface> is open when you
- start <application>Evolution</application>, and the first
- time you see your inbox, there's a message in it from Helix
- Code welcoming you to the application.

- <title>Reading a Message</title>
- <para>
- The first time you open your
- <application>Evolution</application>
- <guilabel>Inbox</guilabel>, you will see a window like the one
- in <xref linkend="usage-mail-intro-fig">, with a message from
- Helix Code in the <interface>message list</interface>. The
- message is displayed below that, in the <interface>view
- pane</interface>. If you find the <interface>view
- pane</interface> too small, you can double-click on the
- message in the <interface>message list</interface> to have it
- open in a new window. As is the case with folders, you can
- right-click on messages in the message list and get a menu of
- possible actions.
- </para>
- <para>
- Go ahead and click on the message in the <interface>message
- list</interface>. That selects the message. Then click on
- the <guibutton>Delete</guibutton> button in the tool bar. The
- message now has a line through it, because you've marked it
- for deletion. If you really want to get rid of it, choose
- <guimenuitem>Expunge</guimenuitem> from the
- <guimenu>Tools</guimenu> menu. That will delete it
- permanently. If you want to keep it, click
- <guibutton>Delete</guibutton> again, and it will no longer be
- marked as deleted. At some point in the future, this feature
- will change to something a little less counter-intuitive.

- for "Carbon Copy." Use it whenever you want to share a

- Say, for example, Susan sends an email to a client.
- She puts her co-worker, Tim, in the in the

- </para>
- <para>
- If you have a large number of recipients, or if you want
- to send mail to several people without sharing the
- recipient list, you should use
- <guilabel>Bcc:</guilabel>. "Bcc" stands for "Blind Carbon
- Copy", and means that people you put in the
- <guilabel>Bcc:</guilabel> field get the message, but
- nobody else sees their email address. They will still see
- the list of addresses from the <guilabel>To:</guilabel>
- and <guilabel>Cc:</guilabel> fields.

- <example id="ex-mail-bcc">
- <title>Using the Bcc: field</title>
- <para>
- Tim is sending out a message to all of his company's
- clients, some of whom are in competition with each
- other, and all of whom value their privacy. If he
- puts every address from his address book's "Clients"

- <title>Getting Really Organized with Virtual Folders</title>
- <para>
- If you find that filters aren't flexible enough for you, or
- end up performing the same search again and again, consider a
- virtual folder. Virtual folders, or vFolders, are an advanced
- way of viewing your email messages within
- <application>Evolution</application>. If you get a lot of
- mail or often forget where you put messages, vFolders can help
- you stay on top of things.
- </para>
- <para>
- A vFolder is really a hybrid of all the other organizational
- tools: it looks like a folder, it acts like a search, and you
- set it up like a filter. Once you've set it up, you'll be
- able to open it and read the messages in it as though it were
- a normal mail folder. It's not a folder, though, because when
- you open a vFolder, <application>Evolution</application>
- performs a search for you. It's not a regular search, though,
- because you can build a vFolder with a very complicated set of
- criteria with multiple inclusions and exclusions, as though
- you were setting up a filter.
- </para>
-
-<!-- potentially useful, but doesn't fit at the moment:
- <para>
- An important difference between a folder and a virtual folder
- is that a conventional folder actually contains messages, but
- a vFolder is a view of messages that may be in several
- different folders. This means that while a message may fall
- into several vFolders, it can be in only one conventional
- folder. Also, it means that you cannot remove a message from
- a vFolder unless you delete it, and you cannot add a message
- to a vFolder unless you change the vFolder's search criteria.
- </para>
--->
-
- <para>
- As messages that meet the vFolder criteria arrive or are
- deleted, <application>Evolution</application> will
- automatically place them in and and remove them from the
- vFolder contents list. When you delete a message, it gets
- erased from the folder in which it actually exists, as well as
- any vFolders which include it.
- </para>
- <para>
- That's pretty complicated, but it can be useful. For example,
- if I have a folder for all the email from one person, and
- another folder for all the email on a given topic, I
- <emphasis>feel</emphasis> organized. But when the person
- sends me mail about the topic, my whole email filing universe
- becomes chaotic, and I need vFolders to save the day for me.
- </para>
- <para>
- That sounds silly, but imagine a business trying to keep track
- of mail from hundreds of vendors and clients, or a university
- with overlapping and changing groups of faculty, staff,
- administrators and students. The larger the system, the less
- you can afford the sort of confusion that stems from an
- organizational system that's not flexible enough. vFolders
- make for better organization because they can accept
- overlapping groups in a way that regular folders and filing
- systems can't.
- </para>
-
- <example id="usage-mail-organize-vFolders-ex">
- <title>Using Folders, Searches, and vFolders</title>
- <para>
- To organize my mail box, I can set up a vFolder
- for emails from my friend Vince, by doing (INSERT
- PROCESS HERE). Then, whenever I want to see the
- messages Vince has sent me, I open the vFolder, and
- every message he's sent me shows up, no matter where
- I've actually filed it. If I want, I can also create a
- vFolder containing any message from my list of
- co-workers which also has the name of the project in
- it. That way, when Vince sends me mail about the
- project, I can see that message both in the "Vince"
- vFolder and in the "Project" vFolder. That's because
- when I open up the "Vince" folder, I'm really
- performing a search for all the mail from Vince, and
- when I open the "Project" folder I'm really performing
- a search for all the mail about the project.
