GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 222227
Categories are not sync'd in Evolution from PalmIIIx
Last modified: 2013-09-13 12:30:33 UTC
This is a (important) feature request rather than a bug. I am running Mandrake 8.1 but upgraded with Evolution to 1.0.2 and I love it. My Palm is PalmIIIx running PalmOS 3.3. I am able to connect to my Palm from Evolution (sometimes, I have to open the Palm Settings in order to stimulate the connection) and download the Palm data (Address Book, Notes, Date Book, and To Do)--actually, I haven't tried to synchronize (2-way exchange) with my Palm given the status of Palm syncing development in Evolution. The problem (or deficiency) is the Categories in Adress Book (Contacts), To Do (Tasks) are stripped/removed in Evolution (e.g., Contacts, Tasks). The Category feature is quite important especially in Contatcs; it allows to replace the so-called personal distribution list in order to send mail to a group of people (belonging to the same category). I believe this behaviour shows in other distros as well. Feel free to email me for further information. Thanks in advance. Liem Nguyen
