Questions and bugs on evolution

hello,

i would like to discuss reply indicator (#3207) · Issue · GNOME/evolution

1/ what are differences betwen these 2 backends : EWS and microsoft365 (graph, mapi, owa…)

i already undestand that EWS is deprecated for october 2026 on O365, not on-premise exchange installations

2/ what exactly is last version of evolution ?

if i go to Apps/Evolution – GNOME Wiki Archive , there is only reference to 3.50.x

if i go to to GNOME Release Calendar - GNOME Release Notes , it’s the same

on zorin os 18 core, i’m running 3.52.3-0ubuntu1

there is a flathub version which bumped me to 3.58.2

but i still don’t know if i’m on last version, stable or not

2/ what with my needs ?

i need reply indicator first

last date+hour then if possible

why i have this in EWS and not in microsoft365 ?

i now running 3.58.2 flathub

thank you

3.58.2 is the latest release as you can see under releases: Releases · GNOME / evolution · GitLab

The wiki is retired and no longer used. It’s an archive.

Hi,

1/ what are differences betwen these 2 backends : EWS and
microsoft365 (graph, mapi, owa…)

Those are just different protocols, to access the same data. They work
differently, because they are not feature complete (the feature parity
between the two protocols is lacking some parts). You, as a user,
should not be bothered by the differences, apart of knowing which to
use when.

The wiki page moved to the:

The archived page you referenced has the very same link near the top of
the content, in a big gray rectangle, telling in bold “This page moved
to GitLab Wiki space…”. I guess you overlooked it. That’s okay.

I’m sorry, but I’m not sure what you are talking about. Could you be
more specific, please? Like to tell where precisely you see something
with EWS, but not with M365.

If you mean the “replied” icon in the message list, then I can see
these in the M365 account too (see the attachment), though I do not
recall whether I replied within this M365 account or by different
means.

last date+hour then if possible

I do not know what you mean with this, I’m sorry.

You also mentioned shared calendars in the bug. With EWS you can add
them one-by-one with File->“Subscribe to folder of other EWS user…”
menu option.

Bye,
Milan
