thanks for the report, there's an upstream similar bug http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=549592 ; according to that you need to have libytnef installed in order to have the plugin working, is that package installed? does it works fine after doing the installation? thanks. |

for Evolution to be able to read the Microsoft proprietary packaging of attachments, you must:
1. install the following packages:
- libytnef0
- evolution-plugins-experimental
(on a terminal, 'sudo apt-get install libytnef0 evolution-plugins-experimental' will do it.)
2. Quit Evolution;
3. Start Evolution again;
4. go to Edit/Plugins, and scroll down to "TNEF Attachment decoder"; enable it.
5. Close the Plugin Manager.
You may have to bounce Evolution again, but this is it.
I am closing this bug. Please do not hesitate in re-opening it if you feel we did not address your issue.
Of course, life would be much more simpler for all if Microsoft were to default to Internet-compatible attachments... |
