Description Benjamin Schindler (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-05-24 01:40:55 UTC
I just found a nifty tool for evolution,
http://blogs.gnome.org/nb.cgi/view/markmc/2005/05/24/0, that I would love to
use, since wading through bugs that are fixed takes too much time. 
So I would request an additional header in the mail that gets sent:
X-Bugzilla-Status=INVALID, UNCONFIRMED or whatever so one can filter mails on them

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:

It seems they have moved.

i see it the link, but dont see what code is needed to be added into the header
info.  its going to go into bugzilla's "newchangedmail" parameter.
Comment 4 Benjamin Schindler (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-06-29 05:04:42 UTC
The program filters mail using a header in the email called X-Bugzilla-Status
This header is not present in our bugzilla, so this plugin won't filter any mail. 
I think this header could be of use for quite a few things. 
What do you mean with 'newchangedmail'?

Comment 6 Benjamin Schindler (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-07-04 05:04:53 UTC
Ah - I see

Ok, I would add something like this:
X-Bugzilla-Reason .. bla...
X-Bugzilla-Status= %bug-state%

Clear-Text....
....

etc

Comment 7 Jeffrey Forman (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-07-15 09:18:42 UTC
bug-state isnt a variable'ized parameter in there, so i cant script it in. sorry.

Hmmm... Gnome bugzilla has this feature.  I wonder if we could find out from
them how it's done?  This would be an invaluable plugin for us devs using
evolution, but it's not particularly useful if we don't have support in our
bugzilla. :)

For the record, here's the headers in Gnome bugzilla mail:
X-Bugzilla-Product: nautilus
X-Bugzilla-Component: Backgrounds Emblems and Themes
X-Bugzilla-Status: RESOLVED
X-Bugzilla-Priority: Normal
X-Bugzilla-Severity: normal
X-Bugzilla-Target-Milestone: ---
X-Bugzilla-Reason: CC
X-Bugzilla-Version: 2.11.x

I'll try and find out how they did it.
