http://bugzilla.meego.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1008 Summary: Evolution contact lists Classification: MeeGo Projects Product: SyncEvolution Version: unspecified Platform: Netbook OS/Version: IA Status: ASSIGNED Severity: enhancement Priority: Medium Component: SyncML AssignedTo: syncevolution-bugs(a)meego.bugs ReportedBy: jingke.zhang(a)intel.com QAContact: jingke.zhang(a)intel.com CC: syncevolution-bugs(a)meego.bugs, syncevolution-syncml-bugs(a)meego.bugs Estimated Hours: 0.0 This is from http://bugzilla.moblin.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6547 Description From pohly 2009-10-06 01:11:26 PST (-) [reply] Evolution stores contact lists as a special vcard: BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:3.0 REV:2009-10-06T06:58:07Z UID:pas-id-4ACAEA7F00000001 EMAIL;X-EVOLUTION-DEST-CONTACT-UID="pas-id-4ACAEA6E00000000";X-EVOLUTION-DE ST-EMAIL-NUM=0;X-EVOLUTION-DEST-HTML-MAIL=FALSE:John Doe <john@work. com> EMAIL;X-EVOLUTION-DEST-CONTACT-UID="pas-id-4ACAEA6E00000010";X-EVOLUTION-DE ST-EMAIL-NUM=0;X-EVOLUTION-DEST-HTML-MAIL=FALSE:Joan Doe <joan@home. com> X-EVOLUTION-LIST-SHOW_ADDRESSES:FALSE X-EVOLUTION-LIST:TRUE N:;alias;;; FN:alias X-EVOLUTION-FILE-AS:alias END:VCARD This extension of the vCard standard is not currently supported by SyncEvolution >= 0.9. It used to be supported in SyncEvolution < 0.9, because that version passed through the special properties unchanged. However, I'm not aware of any SyncML server which stores these extensions. According to Mark, ScheduleWorld doesn't: http://www.scheduleworld.com/jforum/posts/list/2858.page We should figure out what the individual X-EVOLUTION extensions mean and then support as much of them as possible for direct Evolution<->Evolution sync. Preserving the UID in the contact list most likely doesn't work, because the UID has no meaning outside of the local Evolution instance. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.meego.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching the assignee of the bug.
