<title>Using Classifications</title>
<p>If you are using a calendar on a Novell GroupWise or Microsoft Exchange server, you can select a classification to determine who can view it.</p>
<p>To set a classification for an appointment or a task, click <guiseq><gui>Options</gui><gui>Classifications</gui></guiseq> and select a classification in the editor. <gui>Public</gui> is the default category, and a public appointment can be viewed by anyone on the calendar-sharing network. <gui>Private</gui> denotes one level of security, and <gui>Confidential</gui> an even higher level.</p>
<p>The different levels vary depending on your server settings; check with your system administrator or adjust your delegation settings.</p>

<title>Free/Busy information</title>
<p>You can use the Free/Busy search for meetings to determine the availability of invitees.</p>
<!-- TODO: Recheck once https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=655494 is fixed -->
<p>In addition to the standard meeting scheduling tools, you can use the Free/Busy view to check whether people are available in advance. The Free/Busy feature is normally a function of dedicated groupware servers such as Microsoft Exchange and Novell GroupWise. However, you can also publish Free/Busy information online, and access Free/Busy information published elsewhere. If not everyone you collaborate with publishes Free/Busy data, you can still use <link xref="calendar-meetings-sending-invitation">meeting invitations</link> to coordinate schedules with other people.</p>
<p>To access the free/busy view:</p>
<steps>
<item><p>Click <guiseq><gui>File</gui><gui>New</gui><gui>Meeting</gui></guiseq>.</p></item>
<item><p>Click <gui style="button">Add</gui> to add the email addresses of people you want to invite.</p></item>
<item><p>Click the <gui>Free/Busy</gui> button on the toolbar, or click <guiseq><gui>Options</gui><gui>Free/Busy</gui></guiseq>.</p></item>
<item><p>Adjust the meeting time, either by dragging the meeting borders or by using the <gui>Autopick</gui> buttons to choose a time automatically, then click <gui style="button">Close</gui>. Attendees on an Exchange server have the appointment updated automatically; others receive email notification of any change in plans.</p></item>
</steps>
<list>
<item><p>Attendee List:</p><p>The Attendee List shows the people who have been invited to the appointment.</p></item>
<item><p>Schedule Grid:</p><p>The Schedule Grid shows the published Free/Busy information for the people you have invited. This is where you compare schedules to find free time to schedule the appointment. Individuals have visible scheduling information only if they use the same Novell GroupWise or Microsoft Exchange server you do (that is, if they are in the same organization as you), or if they publish free/busy information at a URL you can reach and you have entered that URL into their contact cards using the contact editor.</p></item>
</list>
<p>You can publish Calendar and Free/Busy information to a WebDAV server, FTP server, a remote machine through SSH or to any other web server with HTTP PUT support.</p>
<section id="no-groupware">
<title>Accessing Free/Busy Data Without a Groupware Server</title>
<p>If individuals give you a URL for Free/Busy data or for their web calendar, you can add the URL under <guiseq><gui>Personal Information</gui><gui>Web Addresses</gui></guiseq> in the <link xref="contacts-usage-edit-contact">Contact Editor</link>. Then, when you schedule a meeting with them, Evolution looks up the schedule and displays it in the Free/Busy data.</p>

<title>Sending a Meeting Invitation</title>
<p>When you create a meeting (group appointment), you can specify the attendees in several categories, such as "chair" or "required". When you save the meeting listing, each attendee is sent an email with the meeting information, which also gives them the option to respond.</p>
<p>If you do not need to collect attendance information when you're scheduling an event, and would rather just announce the event, right-click the meeting and select <gui>Forward as iCalendar</gui>. This opens a new email message with the event notification attached as an announcement. Recipients can add the event to their calendars with one click, but it will not automatically send you email about whether they plan to attend.</p>
<p>To schedule a meeting:</p>
<steps>
<item><p>Click <guiseq><gui>File</gui><gui>New</gui><gui>Meeting</gui></guiseq>.</p></item>
<item><p>If you have multiple email accounts, select the one to use by selecting an item in the <gui>Organizer</gui> field.</p></item>
<item><p>Select a calendar in the <gui>Calendar</gui> drop-down list.</p></item>
<item><p>Click <gui style="button">Add</gui> to add the email addresses of people you want to invite.</p></item>
<item><p>Click <gui>View</gui> in the menu bar to show or hide the <gui>Type</gui>, <gui>Role</gui>, <gui>Status</gui>, and <gui>RSVP</gui> fields.</p></item>
<item><p>Enter a brief summary in the <gui>Summary</gui> field.</p></item>
<item><p>(Optional) Type a location in the <gui>Location</gui> field.</p></item>
<item><p>To select this appointment as an all day event, click <guiseq><gui>Options</gui><gui>All Day Event</gui></guiseq>, or click the <gui>All Day Event</gui> button on the toolbar.</p></item>
<item><p>Select the date and time.</p></item>
<item><p>If the event is not an all day event, select either <gui>For</gui> to specify the duration, or select <gui>Until</gui> to specify the ending time of the event.</p></item>
<item><p>(Optional) Enter a description in the <gui>Description</gui> field.</p></item>
<item><p>To query <link xref="calendar-free-busy">free/busy</link> information for the attendees, click the <gui>Free/Busy</gui> button on the toolbar, or click <guiseq><gui>Options</gui><gui>Free/Busy</gui></guiseq>.</p></item>
<item><p>Click <gui>Save</gui> to save the meeting.</p></item>
</steps>
<p>An email is sent out to all the recipients, inviting them to your event.</p>
<note><p>You can also define a <link xref="calendar-timezones">time zone</link>, a <link xref="using-categories">category</link>, a <link xref="calendar-alarms-and-reminders">reminder</link>, a <link xref="calendar-recurrence">recurrence</link>, or a <link xref="calendar-classifications">classification</link> for the event, or add an attachment.</p></note>
<note><p>In Evolution, a meeting can have only one organizer, and only the organizer can add participants to that meeting. Though it is possible to change the organizer of a meeting, this is not recommended as a means to invite additional participants to meetings. If you want to invite additional people to a meeting and are not that meeting's organizer, it is recommended that you forward the invitation message you received from the original meeting organiser to additional participants.</p></note>

<title>Using time zones</title>
<p>Evolution supports using multiple time zones.</p>
<section id="default-timezone">
<title>Setting your global timezone(s)</title>
<p>By default Evolution uses the system-wide time zone. This can be changed under <guiseq><gui>Edit</gui><gui>Preferences</gui><gui>Calendar and Tasks</gui><gui>General</gui><gui>Time</gui><gui>Time zone</gui></guiseq>.</p>
<p>If you deal a lot with people in another specific time zone you can display that second time zone in the day view of the calendar. You can set a second time zone under <guiseq><gui>Edit</gui><gui>Preferences</gui><gui>Calendar and Tasks</gui><gui>General</gui><gui>Time</gui><gui>Second zone</gui></guiseq>.</p>
</section>
<section id="appointment-timezone">
<title>Setting a timezone for an appointment</title>
<p>You can also configure time zone information specific to each appointment. To do that, <link xref="calendar-usage">add a new or edit an existing appointment</link> and click the globe button to customize the time zone that the time exists in. For example, if you live in New York but have a telephone meeting set for noon with someone in California, you need to make sure that your schedules are coordinated. Setting time zones on a per-appointment basis helps avoid that potential confusion.</p>

<title>Using several calendars</title>
<p>You can have multiple calendars and overlay them one over the next. For example, you might have a schedule of events for work, one for home, and one for your favorite sports team. The side bar lists those calendars, and you can select or deselect the boxes next to them to show and hide the appointments in your calendar view. By hiding and showing different sets of appointments, you can be sure to avoid conflicts, while keeping a minimum of clutter in your view.</p>
<p>Appointments for each calendar appear as a different color.</p>
<p>You can also use calendars that are not on your computer, such as on the internet or in a local network.</p>
<p>For example, the <link href="http://icalshare.com">icalshare.com website</link> has an extensive list of shared online calendars, including national and religious holidays, phases of the moon, sports, and local and regional events.</p>

<title>Adding LDAP access</title>
<p>The LDAP protocol was created to let users share contact information over a network by sharing access to a central directory. LDAP allows a company to maintain a shared set of contact information. Many companies keep a common LDAP address book for all their employees or for client contacts.</p>
<section id="add-ldap-addressbook">
<title>Adding an LDAP address book</title>
<steps>
<item><p>Click <guiseq><gui>File</gui><gui>New</gui><gui>Address Book</gui></guiseq>.</p></item>
<item><p>In the <gui>General</gui> tab, select the type <gui>On LDAP Servers</gui>.</p></item>
<item><p>Enter a name that you prefer.</p></item>
<item><p>Enter the address of the server, the port number (the default number is 389) and whether you want to connect securely.</p></item>
<item><p>Define the login method and your user name.</p></item>
<item><p>Click <gui style="button">Apply</gui>.</p></item>
<item><p>In the <gui>Details</gui> tab you can define the following settings:</p>
<list>
<item><p>Search Base: The search base is the starting point for a directory search. Contact your system administrator for information about the correct settings.</p></item>
<item><p>Search Scope: The search scope is the breadth of a given search. The following options are available:</p>
<list>
<item><p>One: Searches the Search Base and one entry below it.</p></item>
<item><p>Sub: Searches the Search Base and all entries below it.</p></item>
</list>
</item>
<item><p>Search Filter: The search filter can be set here for all the LDAP queries. For example:</p>
<list>
<item><p><code>ObjectClass=*</code>: Lists all the objects from the server.</p></item>
<item><p><code>ObjectClass=User</code>: Lists only the users.</p></item>
<item><p><code>Filter (|(ObjectClass=User)(ObjectClass=groupOfNames))</code>: Retrieves the User and Contact List objects.</p></item>
<item><p><code>(&amp;(mail=*)(ObjectClass=*))</code>: Lists the objects associated with the email addresses.</p></item>
</list>
</item>
<item><p>Timeout (minutes): The maximum time Evolution attempts to download data from the server before giving up.</p></item>
<item><p>Download Limit: The maximum number of results for a given search. Most servers refuse to send more than 500 contacts, but you can set the number lower if you want to shorten downloads for very broad searches.</p></item>
</list>
</item>
</steps>
<note><p>If you are unsure about some settings, ask your system administrator.</p></note>
</section>
<section id="add-ldap-addressbook">
<title>Differences to local address books</title>
<p>LDAP address books work like local address books on your computer, with the following exceptions:</p>
<list>
<item><p>Network folders are only available when you are connected to the network. If you use a laptop or have a modem connection, you might want to copy or cache some of the network directory. You do this by dragging and dropping your desired contacts into the local address books.</p></item>
<item><p>You can also mark the network folder for offline usage. To mark the folder, right-click the folder, click Properties and select Copy Folder Content Locally for Offline Operation.</p></item>
<item><p>To prevent excess network traffic, Evolution does not normally load data from the LDAP server upon opening.</p></item>
<item><p>Depending on your server settings, you might not be able to edit all the fields in a contact stored on an LDAP server. Some servers prohibit some or all changes, and others use a smaller set of fields than Evolution allows. Check with your system administrator if you need different settings.</p></item>

<title>Using Contact Lists</title>
<p>A contact list is a set of contacts with a single nickname that you create. When you send mail to this nickname it is actually sent to every member of the list. This differs from a "real" mailing list in that it exists only on your computer as a convenience to you, rather than as an actual email address managed by a mailing list application on a server.</p>
<p>For example, you could create one contact for each family member, then add those contacts to a contact list called "Family". Then, instead of entering each person's email address individually, you can send emails to "Family" and the messages would go to all of them.</p>
<section id="create-contact-list">

<title>Setting the default browser</title>
<!-- For GNOME2 the steps are to define the gconf keys /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/http and /https -->
<p>You can set the system-wide default browser in GNOME 3 under <guiseq><gui>Activities</gui><gui>Applications</gui><gui>System Settings</gui><gui>System</gui><gui>System Info</gui><gui>Default Applications</gui></guiseq>.</p>
<p>If the prefered browser is set as default application but still does not work correctly please contact your distribution via their forum or bug tracker.</p>
<note><p>GNOME 3 users with a technical background can tweak these settings by defining scheme-handlers in <file>$HOME/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list</file>.</p></note>

<title>Choosing the right connector</title>
<p>Depending on the version of the Microsoft Exchange server that you would like to connect to it is required to make sure that an additional package is installed that provides this functionality.</p>
<p>For Microsoft Exchange 2000 and 2003 (and possibly earlier versions of Exchange that use Outlook Web Access) it is recommended to use the package evolution-exchange. <link action="install:evolution-exchange" href="http://projects.gnome.org/evolution/download">Install evolution-exchange now.</link>
</p>
<p>For Microsoft Exchange 2007 (and possibly earlier versions that support MAPI) it is recommended to use the package evolution-mapi. <link action="install:evolution-mapi" href="http://projects.gnome.org/evolution/download">Install evolution-mapi now.</link></p>
<p>For Microsoft Exchange 2010 it is recommended to use the package evolution-ews which is currently still under development and might not be available yet for your distribution. evolution-ews also supports Microsoft Exchange 2007. <link action="install:evolution-ews" href="http://projects.gnome.org/evolution/download">Install evolution-ews now.</link></p>
<note style="tip"><p>If you are unsure which Microsoft Exchange server version is used, you may want to contact your system administrator for more information.</p></note>
<!-- TODO:POST-3-2:
<mbarnes> actually, a table in the docs would make it crystal clear (Exchange version x Evolution backend)
<seanius> also, a feature matrix of what works in the particular releases might be helpful, though maybe hard to visualize in a compact manner

<title>Some windows are too large for small screens.</title>
<p>This is a known problem and hard to solve for a complex application with many settings such as Evolution.</p>
<p>You can use the Express version which is targeted for mobile and small-screen devices. This is available from version 2.30 on and can be enabled by starting <code>evolution --express</code> from the terminal window.</p>
