I really would love to use the same mail client among our linux and Windows users. And occasionally (and lukily) ther are windows builds available from time to time. I would love to see them on a more regular basis and would not mind to test them and report back to the list/developers. > versions.

The one in question serves several million T-Online (German Telekom) accounts/users and just insists on beeing RFC-compliant. > My evolution (version 2.10.3) is rather old but very reliable (Linux) > and uses the standard greeting sentence. > I have no experience with "hacking" of Evolution so I don't know where > the brackets are removed. Unfortunately i am not an experienced programmer. So i have to stick with testing/bug filing and perhaps building MSIs due to some binaries beeing available. > To solve this problem I assume you'll need the source and all the .dll > files (libraries in Windows) and find the problem.

I am on Linux, but on Windows as well (as most of my collegues/staff as well). In addition i would love to encourage more people to use evo as an alternative to Outlo.., as there is - in my oppinion - no better free solution than evo out there which will be accepted as an outlo.. surrogate. Others fail because lack of integrated Kontakts/Kalendars/etc. Best regards and again many thanks for providing great software and support.
