- <title>Configuring and Managing Evolution</title>
- <partintro>
- <para>
- <application>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>Evolution</application>, "configurable" means
- what it ought to. 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.

- context-sensitive, which means that they vary depending on what

- <guimenu>Help</guimenu> and <guimenu>File</guimenu> don't much, if
- at all, because they have more universal functions. But you'd

- others. That is, it's a highly evolved <glossterm
- linkend="groupware">groupware</glossterm> program, an integral

-
- <itemizedlist>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- The application must be <emphasis>both powerful and easy

- complex tasks.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- <application>Evolution</application> must meet and
- exceed the standards set by other groupware products.

- linkend="protocol">protocols</glossterm> so that it can
- integrate seamlessly with existing hardware and network
- environments.
- </para>
- </listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- The project must support open standards and be open to

- developers an environment for cutting-edge application

- <application>Evolution</application> is designed to make most
- daily tasks faster. 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

- <title>The Evolution Address Book</title>

- <para>
- The <application>Evolution</application> address book can
- handle all of the functions of an address book, phone book, or
- Rolodex. Of course, it's a lot easier to update
- <application>Evolution</application> than it is to change an
- actual paper book. <application>Evolution</application> also
- allows easy synchronization with hand-held devices. Since
- <application>Evolution</application> supports the <glossterm
- linkend="ldap">LDAP</glossterm> directory protocol, you can use
- it with almost any type of existing directory server on your
- network.
- </para>
- <para>
- Another advantage of the <application>Evolution</application>
- address book is its integration with the rest of the
- application. When you look for someone's address, you can also
- see a history of appointments with that person. Or, you can
- create address cards from emails with just a few clicks. In
- addition, searches and folders work in the same way they do in
- the rest of Evolution.
- </para>
- <para>
- This chapter will show you how to use the
- <application>Evolution</application> address book 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 address book, see <xref

- <sect1 id="usage-contact-organize">
- <title>Organizing your Address Book</title>
- <para>
- Organizing your address book is a lot like organizing your
- mail. You can have folders and searches the same way you can
- with mail, but the address book does not allow vFolders. It
- does, however, allow each card to fall under several
- categories, and allow you to create your own categories. To
- learn about categories, read <xref
- linkend="usage-contact-organize-group-category">.
- </para>
-
-<!--
- <para>
- Another useful <application>Evolution</application> feature is
- its ability to recognize when people live or work together. If
- several people in your address book 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> offers two ways for you
- to organize your cards. The first way is to use folders;
- this works the same way that mail folders do. For more
- flexibility, you can also mark contacts as members of
- different categories.
- </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. 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. From the dialog box that appears, you can check as
- many or as few categories as you like.
- </para>
- <para>
- Then, you can refer to all the cards in that category by:
- <!-- FIXME --> Waiting for Evolution to support the
- operation.
- </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
- text box, then click <guibutton>Categories</guibutton> and
- choose <guilabel>Add to Master List</guilabel> in the
- window that appears.

- <title>Sharing your Cards</title>
- <para>
- If you keep your cards on a network using an <glossterm
- linkend="ldap">LDAP</glossterm> server, you can share access to
- them, browse other address books, or maintain a shared set of
- contact information for your company or your department. This
- is the sort of feature you'll want to use if your company has a
- list of vendors and clients that needs constant updating. If
- share calendars as well as address books, people can avoid
- duplicating work and keep up to date on developments within
- their work-group or across the entire company.
- </para>
-
- <example id="usage-contact-sharing-ex">
- <title>Sharing Address Cards and Calendar Data</title>
- <para>
- Ray wants to schedule a meeting with Company X, so he
- checks the network for the Company X address card so he
- knows whom to call there. Since his company also shares
- calendars, he then learns that his co-worker Deanna has
- already scheduled a meeting with Company X next Thursday.
- He can either go to the meeting himself or ask Deanna to
- discuss his concerns for him. Either way, he avoids
- scheduling an extra meeting with Company X.

- Of course, you don't want to share all of your cards&mdash; why

- you want to make accessible to others.

- <para>
- The simplest way to direct a message is to put the email

- <title>Using the Cc: field</title>
- <para>
- When Susan sends an email to a client, she puts her

- received the message, and knows that he can talk to

- </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 it sends messages discreetly. In other words,
- the people in the <guilabel>Bcc:</guilabel> field get the
- message, but nobody sees that they got it. Note that the
- contents of the <guilabel>To:</guilabel> and
- <guilabel>Cc:</guilabel> fields are visible to all
- recipients, even to people on the
- <guilabel>Bcc:</guilabel> list.

- Tim is sending an email announcement to all of his

- <title>Staying organized: Mail Filters in Evolution</title>
- <para>
- I once worked in the mail room of a large company, where my
- job was to bundle, sort, and distribute mail to the various
- mail boxes and desks throughout the building. Filters do that
- same job with email, but they lose much less mail than I did.
- In addition, you can have multiple filters performing multiple
- actions that may effect the same message in several ways. For
- example, your filters could put copies of one message into
- multiple folders, or keep a copy and send one to another
- person as well, and it can do that in under a second. Which is
- to say, it's faster and more flexible than an actual person
- with a pile of envelopes.
- </para>
- <para>
- Most often, you'll want to have
- <application>Evolution</application> put mail into different
- folders, but you can have it do almost anything you like.
- People who get lots of mail, or who often need to refer to old
- messages, find filters especially helpful, but they're good
- for anybody who gets more than a few messages a day. To
- create a filter, open the <interface>filter

- <title>Getting Really Organized with Virtual Folders</title>
- <para>
- If filters aren't flexible enough for you, or you find
- yourself 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, 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>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>
-
- <example id="usage-mail-organize-vFolders-ex">
- <title>Using Folders, Searches, and Virtual Folders</title>
- <para>
- To organize my mail box, I set up a virtual folder for
- emails from my friend and co-worker Anna. I have another
- one for messages that have "ximian.com" in the address and
- "Evolution" in the subject line, so I can keep a record of
- what people from work send me about
- <application>Evolution</application>. If Anna sends me a
- message about anything other than Evolution, it only shows
- up in the "Anna" folder. When Anna sends me mail about the
- user interface for <application>Evolution</application>, I
- can see that message both in the "Anna" virtual folder and
- in the "Internal Evolution Discussion" virtual folder.
- </para>
- </example>
-
- <!-- (INSERT SCREENSHOT HERE: virtual folders in action) -->
-
- <para>
- To create a virtual folder, select <menuchoice>
- <guimenu>Settings</guimenu> <guimenuitem>Virtual Folder
- Editor</guimenuitem> </menuchoice>. This will bring up a
- dialog box that looks suspiciously like the filter window
- (for more information on filters, see <xref
- linkend="usage-mail-organize-filters">), and which
- presents you with a list of virtual folders you have previously
- created. If you have created any virtual folders, they are listed
- here, and you can select, edit or remove them if you wish.
- If you have not created any, there will be only one available
- option: click <guibutton>Add</guibutton> to add a new
- Virtual Folder.
- </para>
- <para>
- You can enter a name for your virtual folder in the
- <guilabel>Name</guilabel>. Then, tell
- <application>Evolution</application> what messages to look
- for. This process is exactly like filter creation: decide
- between <guilabel>Match all parts</guilabel> and
- <guilabel>Match any part</guilabel>, then choose what part of
- the message to look in, what sort of matching to perform, and
- specify exactly what it is that you want to find, be it a
- line of text, a score, a regular expression, or a particular date or
- range of dates.
- </para>
- <para>
- The second part, however, is slightly different. In the
- section of the window labelled <guilabel>Virtual Folder Sources
- </guilabel> is a list of folders in which
- <application>Evolution</application> will search for the
- contents of your vFolder. Click <guibutton>Add</guibutton>
- to add a folder, or <guibutton>Remove</guibutton> to remove
- one. That way, you can have your vFolder search in
- newsgroups, or just in one of your mailboxes, or just in a
- select few folders you've already screened with filters.

- downwards. On most computers, there will be three or four

- data that's stored on your computer. After that come
- <guilabel>Virtual Folders</guilabel>, or virtual folders, discussed in

- changes the way the page will be printed, but they do let you
