Thanks, guenther and Erik,
That's what iwanted to know. I will wait as Evolution 2.2.3 is stable (I
use POP not IMAP) and some of the quirks I can live with. When you have
thought for many years that Eudora was the best there is (until approx.
2000!) then Evolution is simply heaven.
I will scan the Fedora lists to see when FC5 is available.
