Unfortunately I can't change the address I use for Xubuntu user from Alice to Rocketmail or Yahoo, I don't receive a conformation mail. And for some other reason I need to run evolution --force-shutdown all trhe times, still for a downgraded version of Evolution. Mailing with Linux nowadays becomes tricky :D. However, I planed to send this to the "[xubuntu-users] highlighting and clicking in EVOLUTION" thread: This likely is an issue I experienced a long time ago too. Perhaps for Ubunbtu Studio (Xubuntu) only, but more likely for all of my Linux installs (e.g. Arch too). I guess it's related to the used GTK version and/or the used version of Evolution. My recommendation to the OP is to stay with one Linux distro and then try to learn how to fix issues. While I guess there's no fix for the Evolution issue he's experiencing now, but to wait for an upgrade. However, the OP is a novice experiencing issues with Debian and Xubuntu, not trying to fix issues, but to install one thing after the other. _My recommendation to the OP is to stay with one distro, one DE, one choice of apps and to learn how to fix issues._ Evolution might not be the MUA you want to use, ask the community for a better MUA. Switching distros could be helpful if you know what you do, but unlikely will help you to solve the problems a novice will experience. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
