- <title>What is Encryption?</title>
- <para>
- Encryption is an ancient method of changing readable text to unreadable
- text that dates back to Egyptian times. Encryption takes the statement
- "Evolution" and turns it into something which cannot be read without help
- through decryption.
- <example>
- <title>Encryption Example</title>
- <para>
- Kevin orders an <application>Evolution</application> t-shirt from
- Ximian, Inc. over the internet. He puts in his credit card number
- which is 1234-567-8901. For security, his computer encrypts the
- credit card number so it can be safely transmitted over the internet.
- The number now is @#$23ui7yr87#@!48970fsd, which holds no intentional
- resemblance to the inital number. When the information gets to
- Ximian, Inc. it'll be decrypted into the inital number.
- </para>
- </example>
- Encryption can be used in email in two ways: to verify that the sender is
- the real sender, and to hide the message while in transmission.
- <application>Evolution</application> has the capability to do both.
- </para>

- <title>Generating your PGP key</title>
- <para>
- First, you need to create a PGP key. To do this, you'll need GPG
- installed.
- </para>
- <tip>
- <title>GPG Versions</title>
- <para>
- This manual covers version 1.0.6 of GPG. If your version is different,
- this may not be entirely accurate. You may find out your version number
- by typing in: <command>gpg --version</command>.
- </para>
- </tip>
- <para>
- You can start by typing in: <command>gpg --gen-key</command>. At the
- first question, select 1. The next question asks you about key length.
- The longer the key, more stronger it is. However, the longer the key, the
- longer it takes to generate. This is your choice. However, 1024 bits
- (default) should be adequate. The next question asks you if you want your
- key to expire. Expiring keys make your key invalid after a certain amount
- of time, so old keys don't float around active. This is the same concept
- as a coupon at a supermarket. Next, you'll type in your Real name, your
- email address, and a comment. You should not forge this information, as
- it is used later to verify who you are. Assuming that all your
- information is correct, press "O" to continue. GPG now asks you for a
- passphrase. This is a password which you will need to decrypt and encrypt
- messages. This can be any length, with any characters in it. It is case
- sensitive, which means that it does know the difference between capital
- letters and lower-case. Now your key is generated. It is recommend you
- surf the internet, read your email, or write a letter in a word
- processor. This help creates randomness in the key.
- </para>
- <para>
- Once this is completed, you'll be dropped back to the command line.
- Now you can view your key information by typing <command>gpg
- --list-keys</command>. You should see something similar to this:
- <example id="gpg-list-keys">

- sub 1024g/289sklj3 2001-06-20 [expires: 2002-11-14]
- </para>
- </example>
- You'll now need to upload your public key to a keyserver, so that your
- friends can use your key. You'll need to know the ID of your key, which
- is after the 1024D on the line beginning with pub. For this example, it
- is 32j38dk2. You now type in <command>gpg --send-keys --keyserver
- wwwkeys.pgp.net 32j38dk2</command>. Substitute your key ID for 32j38dk2.

- <question>
- <para>
- How can I use Evolution with Microsoft Exchange or Lotus Notes?
- </para>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>
- If your server uses standard open protocols like IMAP,
- LDAP, POP, and SMTP, you can use Evolution with it. You
- can share addresses with vCards and calendar items with
- iCal appointments.

- <question>
- <para>
- Can I use Evolution with KDE?
- </para>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>
- Evolution will work fine in KDE. You will need to
- install all of the GNOME libraries that it depends on.
- Also, certain configuration options, such as default
- fonts and the message editor keybinding behavior, must be
- changed using the GNOME Control Center application (this
- will also run from within KDE).

- <question>
- <para>
- Can Evolution sync with my Palm OS (tm) device?
- </para>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>
- Yes. However, it is not yet stable enough for general
- release and we do not yet ship Evolution with Palm
- synchronization enabled default. Until we do, you will
- need to compile this in yourself. Check the
- <filename>README</filename> file for additional
- information on the requirements. Full compatibility and
- synchronization for calendar and addressbook applications
- on Palm devices will be implemented and shipped soon.

- <question>
- <para>
- What is the difference between a virtual folder (vfolder)
- and a regular folder?
- </para>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>
- A virtual folder is like a saved search: it is a view of
- your mail. Regular folders actually contain the mail
- messages. You can have one message be in multiple virtual
- folders, but only in one regular folder. See the section
- in the Evolution manual about virtual folders for more
- information.

- <question>
- <para>
- Can Evolution spell-check messages while I compose them?
- </para>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>
- Yes. The Evolution composer is able to highlight
- mis-spelled word on the fly as you type them, and also
- give you suggestions for possible corrections. In order
- for this to work you need the
- <filename>gnome-spell</filename> component, which is not
- shipped with Ximian GNOME yet.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- If you are brave enough, you can check out module
- <filename>gnome-spell</filename> from the GNOME CVS and
- compile it yourself. Check out its README file for a list
- of <filename>gnome-spell</filename>'s requirements for
- compilation.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Note that you don't need to recompile Evolution after
- installing <filename>gnome-spell</filename>; it will be
- picked up automatically.

- <question>
- <para>
- Why can't I see the images that are contained in some HTML
- mail messages.
- </para>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>
- Evolution currently doesn't support this, but it's a
- planned feature. It will be an option: many people like
- to turn off the images because they use up bandwidth and can
- be used to spy on your email reading habits.
- </para>

-
- <qandaentry>
- <question>
- <para>
- Can I change the font that Evolution uses to compose and
- display mail messages?
- </para>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>
- You have to change the GtkHTML settings for that: in the
- GNOME Control Center, go to the "HTML Viewer"
- configuration page, which is under the "Document Handlers"
- category.

- <question>
- <para>
- How do I import my Outlook <filename>.pst</filename> files into Evolution?
- </para>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>
- You cannot import these files directly into Evolution
- because the <filename>.pst</filename> format is a
- proprietary format. However, Mozilla Mail on Windows can
- convert them into the <type>mbox</type> format, which can
- then be imported by Evolution.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- To start importing your Outlook mail to Evolution, run
- Mozilla Mail on Windows and select the
- <menuchoice><guimenu>File</guimenu><guimenuitem>Import...</guimenuitem></menuchoice>
- to begin. Then select that you wish to import Mail from
- Outlook. Once Mozilla has imported all your mail, reboot
- your computer into Linux.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Mount your Windows partition in Linux and run Evolution to
- begin importing your mail. Select
- <menuchoice><guimenu>File</guimenu><guimenuitem>Import
- File...</guimenuitem></menuchoice> to start importing. Set
- the file type to MBox (mbox) and click on
- <guibutton>Browse</guibutton> to select the mail you want
- to import.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- If you are the only user on Windows, the mail files will
- be stored in <filename>/mnt/c/windows/Application
- Data/Mozilla/Profiles/default/XXXX/Mail/imported.mail/</filename>
- where <filename>/mnt/c/</filename> is your windows
- partition mount point and XXXX is some collection of
- numbers and digits ending in <filename>.slt</filename>.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- If there is more than one user, the file will be in
- <filename>/mnt/c/windows/Profiles/USERNAME/XXXX/Mail/imported.mail/</filename>
- where USERNAME is your Windows username.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- For each mail folder in Outlook, Mozilla will convert the
- folder into one mbox file. To import all your mail, import
- all the files without a <filename>.msf</filename>
- extension.

- <question>

- <answer>
- <para>
- Mozilla on Windows accesses the <filename>.pst</filename>
- files through the <filename>MAPI.DLL</filename>, which is

- <question>
- <para>
- How do I get Evolution from CVS?
- </para>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>
- If you already have
- <ulink url="http://cvs.gnome.org">GNOME CVS</ulink> access,
- simply check out the following modules: evolution,
- gtkhtml, gal.
- </para>
- <para>
- If you don't have a CVS account, you can use anoncvs
- instead. Bear in mind that anoncvs is only synchronized once
- a day, and code received from anoncvs may not be latest
- version available.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Before using the anoncvs server, you have to log into it.
- This only needs to be done once. Use this command:
- </para>
-
- <programlisting>
- cvs -z3 -d :pserver:anonymous@anoncvs.gnome.org:/cvs/gnome login
- </programlisting>
-
- <para>
- Then you can retrieve the modules needed to compile Evolution
- using the following command:
- </para>
-
- <programlisting>
- cvs -z3 -d :pserver:anonymous@anoncvs.gnome.org:/cvs/gnome co evolution gtkhtml gal
- </programlisting>
- </answer>
- </qandaentry>
-
- <qandaentry>
- <question>
- <para>
- How should I compile Evolution avoiding conflicts with my
- existing GNOME installation?
- </para>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>
- The best way is to install Evolution into a separate prefix.
- In order to specify a non-default installation prefix, you
- can pass the <parameter>--prefix</parameter> option to
- <filename>configure</filename> or
- <filename>autogen.sh</filename>. For example:
- </para>
-
- <programlisting>
- cd /cvs/evolution
- ./autogen.sh --prefix=/opt/gnome
- </programlisting>
-
- <para>
- If you install Evolution and the Evolution libraries in a
- non-standard prefix, make sure you set the appropriate
- environment variables in the startup script for Evolution:
- </para>
-
- <programlisting>
- export PATH=/opt/gnome:$PATH
- export GNOME_PATH=/opt/gnome:/usr
- </programlisting>
-
- <para>
- You may also need to add <filename>$prefix/lib</filename>
- (e.g. <filename>/opt/gnome/lib</filename>) to your
- <filename>/etc/ld.so.conf</filename>. Of course, this will
- not work for systems which do not use ld.so.conf, such as
- HP-UX.
- </para>
- </answer>
- </qandaentry>
- <qandaentry>
- <question>
- <para>
- I get the error message: <computeroutput>make: *** No rule
- to make target
- `all-no-@BUILD_INCLUDED_LIBINTL@'</computeroutput>
- </para>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>
- You probably have <filename>gettext</filename> 0.10.36 or
- later installed. Try downgrading to 0.10.35;
- unfortunately, 0.10.36 introduced some incompatibilities
- with the current <filename>xml-i18n-tools</filename>.

- <question>
- <para>
- I updated Evolution and now my addressbook information is gone!
- What should I do?
- </para>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>
- Evolution uses the <filename>libdb</filename> library to
- handle the addressbook database. Two versions of
- <filename>libdb</filename> can be used with Evolution: version
- 1.88 and version 2.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Unfortunately, an Evolution executable that is linked against
- a certain version of <filename>libdb</filename> will only be
- able to read addressbook files written by another Evolution
- executable that is linked with the same version of the
- library. If your addressbook is not readable by Evolution
- anymore, it probably means that you used to have Evolution
- linked with a certain version of <filename>libdb</filename>,
- but now it gets linked to a different version.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Because of the way <filename>libdb</filename> is designed, it
- is not easy for Evolution to automatically do the conversion
- between the two formats. But, if your Evolution used to be
- linked against version 1.85 and now is linked to version 2,
- there is a very simple way to convert the database and recover
- your data.
- </para>
-
- <itemizedlist>

- First of all, check the format of the database using the

- </programlisting>
-
- <para>
- You want version 1.85 there. If your version is 2, then
- your current Evolution is probably linked against
- version 1.85 and you cannot convert the database to the
- old format. To do that, follow these instructions:
- </para>

- Evolution reported an error when trying to retrieve from my
- local spool in <filename>/var/spool/mail/username</filename>. Why?
- </para>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>
- Evolution doesn't have an external helper for moving mail,
- so <filename>/var/spool/mail/</filename> must be writable
- by you. Try this:
- </para>
-
- <programlisting>
- chmod 1777 /var/spool/mail

- <question>
- <para>
- Evolution crashes reporting that it couldn't allocate N

- </para>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>
- This usually happens when a component tries talking a
- certain version of a CORBA interface to another component
- that supports a different version. For example, this can
- happen when you recompile and install a single component
- without recompiling/installing the rest of Evolution.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- If you run into this problem, make sure all the components
- are compiled and installed at the same time. This also
- applies to GtkHTML upgrades; after upgrading and
- installing a newer GtkHTML, always re-compile and
- re-install Evolution against it.

- <question>
- <para>
- What is <command>killev</command> and why do I need to use it?
- </para>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>
- Evolution is actually made up of several components that run
- as separate processes. Evolution's shell is not very good
- at cleaning up stale processes, so it is possible that
- sometimes already-running components cause unexpected and/or
- broken behavior.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- It's always a good idea to run <command>killev</command>
- after a crash in Evolution, especially if the Evolution
- shell itself crashed. (If a component crashes instead, you
- should try to exit the shell cleanly first, so you give a
- chance to the other components to clean things up properly.)

- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>
- <command>oaf-slay</command> is an utility which comes with
- OAF, the Object Activation Framework that is used in the
- GNOME Desktop to activate components. It will kill the
- object activation daemon (<command>oafd</command>) as well
- as all the active components on the system.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Using <command>oaf-slay</command>
- <command>oaf-slay</command> is quite drastic and can cause
- problems with other programs that use oaf, especially with
- <application>Nautilus</application>. To avoid problems, do
- not run <command>oaf-slay</command> while you are in GNOME.

- <question>
- <para>
- Where should I report bugs for Evolution?
- </para>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>
- You can use the GNOME Bug Report Tool
- (<command>bug-buddy</command>), or report bugs to the
- Ximian bug reporting system (Bugzilla), located at <ulink
- url="http://bugzilla.ximian.com">http://bugzilla.ximian.com</ulink>.
- </para>

- <para>
- Please use the query function to check if a bug has been

- <qandaentry>
- <question>
- <para>
- What is a stack trace (backtrace) and how do I get one?
- </para>
- </question>
- <answer>
- <para>
- A stack trace is a list of the chain of function calls
- that lead to some point in the program. Typically, you
- want to get a stack trace when Evolution crashes or
- hangs and you want to try to figure out where in the
- code that happened and why. For this reason, stack
- traces are extremely useful for the Evolution
- developers, so it's important that you learn how to get
- them, and include them in crash reports. The
- <application>bug-buddy</application> tool can get and
- submit a stack trace for you. If you want to do it by
- yourself, here's how:
- </para>
- <para>
- First of all, in order to get a stack trace, your
- executable (and possibly the libraries) must be compiled
- with debugging symbols. Debugging symbols are created by
- default if you compile from CVS, and are included in the
- snapshot builds. If you decide to compile by yourself
- with some custom CFLAGS value, make sure -g is included
- in them.
- </para>
- <para>
- Finally, you must put the component that crashes through
- <application>gdb</application>, the GNU debugging tool.
- To do so, make sure all the components are dead (exit
- Evolution and run <command>killev</command>), then run the
- following command:
- <programlisting>
- <command>gdb name-of-component</command>
- </programlisting>
-
- Where "name-of-component" is the name of the component that
- crashed.
- </para>
- <para>
- Then, at the gdb prompt, type r (for "run") and wait a
- few seconds to make sure the component has registered
- with the name service. Then start
- <application>Evolution</application> normally from a
- different terminal.
- </para>
- <para>
- When you have started
- <application>Evolution</application>, reproduce the
- crash, and go back to the terminal where you ran gdb. If
- the component crashed, you should have a prompt there;
- otherwise, just hit Control+C. At the prompt, type
- <command>info threads</command>. This will give you a
- screen that looks like this:
- </para>
- <para>
- <programlisting>
-(gdb) info threads
- 8 Thread 6151 (LWP 14908) 0x409778fe in sigsuspend () from /lib/libc.so.6
- 7 Thread 5126 (LWP 14907) 0x409778fe in sigsuspend () from /lib/libc.so.6
- 6 Thread 4101 (LWP 1007) 0x409778fe in sigsuspend () from /lib/libc.so.6

- 1 Thread 1024 (LWP 995) 0x40a10d90 in poll () from /lib/libc.so.6
- </programlisting>
-
- For the most part, only
- <application>evolution-mail</application> will have more
- than one thread.
- </para>
- <para>
- Now, for each of the threads listed, type the following commands:
-<programlisting>
-thread N
-bt
-</programlisting>
- Where 'N' is the number of the thread (in this example, 1
- through 8).
- </para>
- <para>
- Cut and paste all the output gdb gives you into a text
- file. You can quit gdb by typing
- <userinput>quit</userinput>
- </para>
- <para>
- If you prefer, you can start gdb while a process is
- running. You'll want to do this right after a crash dialog
- appears, but before hitting "OK" or "Submit bug report".
- Start <application>gdb</application> as above, but instead
- of using <userinput>r</userinput>, type <userinput>attach
- PID</userinput> where PID is the process ID of the
- component you want to debug.
- </para>
- <para>
- If that sounds too complicated, you can always use
- <command>bug-buddy</command> to get and submit the stack
- trace.

- <partintro>
- <para>
- <application>Ximian Evolution</application> is highly
- configurable. Usually, when developers say that, they mean
- that they didn't test it out thoroughly and have left it to
- other programmers to "configure" themselves a working
- system. In the case of <application>Ximian
- Evolution</application>, "configurable", it means that, while
- you can expect the program to work perfectly well in its
- default settings, it's also easy to alter its behavior in a
- wide variety of ways, so that it fits your needs exactly.
- This part of the book will describe that process, from the
- quickest glimpse of the Setup Assistant to an in-depth tour of
- the preferences dialogs.

- <para>
- Your appointment must have a starting and ending date &mdash; by

- appears at the top of a day's appointment list rather than inside
- it. That makes it easy to have appointments that overlap and fit
- inside each other. For example, a conference might be an all
- day appointment, and the meetings at the conference would be timed
- appointments. Of course, appointments with specific starting and ending
- times can also overlap. When they do they're displayed as

- Organizing your address book is a lot like organizing your

- with mail, but the address book does not allow Virtual Folders. It
- does, however, allow each card to fall under several
- categories, and allow you to create your own categories. To

- Another useful <application>Evolution</application> feature is
- its ability to recognize when people live or work together. If

- change the address for all of them, or just for one.

- <sect2 id="usage-contact-organize-group">
- <title>Groups of contacts</title>
- <para>
- <application>Evolution</application> offers two ways for you
- to organize your cards. The first way is to use folders;
- this works the same way mail folders do. For more
- flexibility, you can also mark contacts as elements of
- different categories. To better integrate with email tools,
- you can also create lists of contacts that you can send mail
- to as a single person.
- </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. If you've read <xref
- linkend="usage-mainwindow"> then you already know that you
- can create a new folder by selecting
- <menuchoice>
- <guimenu>File</guimenu>
- <guisubmenu>New</guisubmenu>
- <guimenuitem>Folder</guimenuitem>
- </menuchoice>
- and that you can put new folders anywhere you like. Just
- like with mail, cards must be in a card folder, and no card
- can be in two places at once. If you want more
- flexibility, try <xref
- linkend="usage-contact-organize-group-category">.
- </para>
- <para>
- To put a card into a folder, just drag it there from the
- folder view. Remember that contact 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.
- 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. From the dialog box that appears, you can check as
- many or as few categories as you like.
- </para>
-
- <!-- FIXME: Feature Not Implemented
- <para>
-
- If the master list of categories doesn't suit you, you can
- add your own. Just enter the new category's name in the

- <title>What is Encryption?</title>
- <para>
- Encryption is an ancient method of changing readable text to unreadable
- text that dates back to Egyptian times. Encryption takes the statement
- "Evolution" and turns it into something which cannot be read without help
- through decryption.
- <example>
- <title>Encryption Example</title>
- <para>
- Kevin orders an <application>Evolution</application> t-shirt from
- Ximian, Inc. over the internet. He puts in his credit card number
- which is 1234-567-8901. For security, his computer encrypts the
- credit card number so it can be safely transmitted over the internet.
- The number now is @#$23ui7yr87#@!48970fsd, which holds no intentional
- resemblance to the inital number. When the information gets to
- Ximian, Inc. it'll be decrypted into the inital number.
- </para>
- </example>
- Encryption can be used in email in two ways: to verify that the sender is
- the real sender, and to hide the message while in transmission.
- <application>Evolution</application> has the capability to do both.

- of time, so old keys don't float around active. This is the same concept
- as a coupon at a supermarket. Next, you'll type in your Real name, your
- email address, and a comment. You should not forge this information, as
- it is used later to verify who you are. Assuming that all your
- information is correct, press "O" to continue. GPG now asks you for a
- passphrase. This is a password which you will need to decrypt and encrypt
- messages. This can be any length, with any characters in it. It is case
- sensitive, which means that it does know the difference between capital
- letters and lower-case. Now your key is generated. It is recommend you
- surf the internet, read your email, or write a letter in a word
- processor. This help creates randomness in the key.

- You'll now need to upload your public key to a keyserver, so that your

- <title>Getting Really Organized with vFolders</title>
- <para>
- If filters aren't flexible enough for you, or you find
- yourself performing the same search again and again, consider
- a vFolder. vFolders, or virtual folders, are an advanced way
- of viewing your email messages within
- <application>Ximian Evolution</application>. If you get a lot of
- mail or often forget where you put messages, virtual folders
- can help you stay on top of things.
- </para>
- <para>
- A virtual folder 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. In other words, while a conventional
- folder actually contains messages, a virtual folder is a view of
- messages that may be in several different folders. The
- messages it contains are determined on the fly using a set of
- criteria you choose in advance.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- As messages that meet the virtual folder criteria arrive or are
- deleted, <application>Ximian Evolution</application> will
- automatically place them in and remove them from the
- virtual folder contents list. When you delete a message, it gets
- erased from the folder in which it actually exists, as well as
- any virtual folders which display it.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- 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 more mail you need to organize, the less you
- can afford the sort of confusion that stems from an
- organizational system that's not flexible enough. Virtual folders
- make for better organization because they can accept
- overlapping groups in a way that regular folders and filing
- systems can't.
- </para>
-
-
- <note id="unmatched-vfolder">
- <title>The Unmatched vFolder</title>
- <para>
- Obviously, not all messages will fit into all your Virtual
- Folders. That's why <application>Ximian Evolution</application>
- includes an UNMATCHED vFolder. The UNMATCHED
- vFolder displays messages that are not matched by other rules.
- </para>

- <title>Using Folders, Searches, and vFolders</title>
- <para>
- To organize his mailbox, Jim sets up a virtual volder for emails from
- his friend and co-worker Anna. He has another one for messages that
- have ximian.com in the address and <application>Ximian Evolution</application> in the subject line, so he
- can keep a record of what people from work send him about

- <simplelist>
- <member>
- Someone sends a message to a single address, like
- <email>evolution@ximian.com</email>.
- </member>
- <member>
- That address belongs to a program that distributes
- the message to a list of recipients.

- </simplelist>
- The mail management program lets individuals subscribe
- to or unsubscribe from the list at will, without
- requiring the message writers to remember the addresses
- of every recipient.
