I experience "hangs" (i.e. freezes) all of the time. I send in stack traces every time I do. They just don't lead to anything. > I've not ever had Evolution > hard-freeze that I can recall. How much of evolution do you use though? Single POP account or something. Probably those of us experiencing such frequent deadlocks are using many of evolutions features. Personally, I use several IMAP accounts, address books including LDAP and several network based and local calendars. > It doesn't handle network issues very gracefully, No, it doesn't.

Well, from all appearances, neither is being done, so I guess Patrick was asking for the easier of the two. > Dude, pay attention to the list.

Or will that allow us all to have configurable toolbars and whatnot? I really don't know the implications of the killing off of bonobo, but it all sounds like eye-candy (and whatnot else new features) rather than directly working towards a goal of the fixing of the many open bugs and making Evolution usable again. > And Evolution remains, as it has been for many years, THE premiere Open > Source mail client and PIM. Yes. Sadly there is no replacement. If there were, as much as I hate to say it, I would have been gone a long time ago. > There is nothing else that comes close to > the functionality and stability provided by Evolution. One out of two. I will give evolution functionality, any day. But I would never in a heartbeat call it stable. It's just not -- not for anyone doing anything more than reading a POP mailbox and for that, there are plenty of choices. b.
