This tutorial is a continuation to the previous Thunderbird+Enigmail tutorial. This is intended for you GNOME users (on Ubuntu, Fedora, PureOS, etc.) particularly if you use Evolution Mail Client. You will learn how to import your own pair of public+private keys, setup Evolution, and finally read and send email in encryption. Also, you can attach your public key so every recipient can reply to you with encrypted mail only you can read. Overall, it's easy if you know the way. Enjoy!

In the last post, I explained Google Calendar read-only access setup on Evolution Mail Client. Now, if you want the read-write access setup, this article explains it. This article is dedicated for all Evolution users on Debian, Ubuntu, and other GNU/Linux distros.

This tutorial guides you to setup Evolution Mail Client for Gmail via IMAP mode. I do it on Evolution version 3.18 on Linux Mint 18.1. Evolution is a free replacement for Microsoft Outlook and is available on all GNU/Linux distros. If you use GNOME, most likely you will use Evolution as well, and I hope this tutorial helps you to setup it. Happy mailing!

This tutorial guides you how to sync Evolution to online Fruux Calendar. By syncing, you have an offline copy of your Fruux calendar on your Evolution, and you can edit that calendar from Evolution. The summary is: use the Thunderbird tutorial instead of Evolution from the official Fruux documentation.

Today when I try to add new event on freshly-installed GNOME Calendar 3.20 (on Trisquel 8, based on Ubuntu Xenial) it gives no response so new event & calendar cannot be added. Later, I find the error message from console "Failed to execute program org.gnome.evolution.dataserver.Sources5" and I find the hint from Gerold Jens on Launchpad  it solves the issue correctly by installing "evolution-data-server" package.

Solution

$ sudo apt-get install evolution-data-server 

In my system, this will also install 4 dependency packages (800KB total): libedata-cal-1.2-28, libgeocode-glib0, libgweather-3-6, and libgweather-common.

Restart your GNOME Calendar and now you should be able to add new event and add new calendar. Thank you GNOME developers!
