Automatic Contacts does not create new contact after sending email.

[Anindya Mukherjee]

Binary package hint: evolution

I am running Ubuntu 9.10 64 bit on an Intel Core 2 Duo system. This is a bug with the bundled Evolution 2.28.1.

I have enabled automatic contacts in Edit->Preferences->Mail Preferences. However, when sending new mails or replying to messages, no new contacts are added to the address book. It does not seem to depend on which address book is selected (at the moment, I have Ubuntu One CouchDB selected).

I'll be happy to provide additional information.

thanks for the report, confirming, though that only happens while selecting ubuntu one as the backend.

Thanks. On my system evolution will not add a new contact no matter which address book backend I use. Not sure why. It's a fresh install, and I have not imported any old settings.

I just checked again, and Automatic Contacts now works with the "Personal" address book. It was not working earlier, however.

The "Ubuntu One" backend is still not working.

Thanks for the testing Anindya, will ping the ubuntu one team to have a look, thanks.

I'm literally experiencing the exact same thing in the exact same environment as this bug's description: Automatic Contacts isn't working, Ubuntu 9.10 64-bit, Intel Core 2 Duo, Evolution 2.28.1, Ubuntu One.

Thanks for the report, it has been some time without any response or feedback in this bug report and we are wondering if this is still an issue for you with the latest release of Ubuntu the Natty Narwhal, May you please test with that version and comment back if you're still having or not the issue? Please have a look at http://www.ubuntu.com/download to know how to install that version.Thanks in advance.

We're closing this bug since it is has been some time with no response from the original reporter. However, if the issue still exists please feel free to reopen with the requested information. Also, if you could, please test against the latest development version of Ubuntu, since this confirms the bug is one we may be able to pass upstream for help.
