I had a look at bugzilla and found that it is really discussed and seems to be fixed in a future version. That's good news for me, as most of the people i try to convince to get rid of their Outlook habbits are working with T-Online-server (German Telekom) hosting millions of email accounts. Would have been very sad, if all those users couldn't use evo (on Win32). Hopefully there will be a new evo win32 build soon after the fix made it in. (sorry, I am not able to build it by my own) Many thanks for your support and for providing great software.
