As you may remember, I've been running the Evolution mail system under
Fedora-15/KDE for about a month now, and it has some very serious
problems, which I can summarize as:

     1. It ignores font control from the KDE Settings->Applications
        Appearance window, both KDE font control and GTK+ font control,
        also its own internal font control window.
     2. It has trouble sending messages to an SMTP server, sometimes
        taking a l-o-n-g time, sometimes timing out. This can be
        temporarily cured by restarting it
     3. It crashes when a filter attempts to refile an outgoing message.
     4. It often asks if I want to recover messages that have never been
        lost.
     5. It often locks up receiving mail from a remote POP3 server.

I can live with these, except for items 1 and 2, since I have
workarounds.

My system versions are:

      * Fedora-15
      * KDE 4.6.5
      * gnome-3.0.x
      * evolution-3.0.2-3
      * all running on a 4 processor x86_64 system

I'd like to try out evolution 3.1.x, which seems to be stuck somewhere
in the pipeline, so I downloaded the latest evolution-3.1.4-1.fc16, from
koji.  Unfortunately it won't run, nor will the source build, due to
incompatibilities between the versions on koji, which are for fc16 and
my current fc15 system.

Questions:

      * Do you expect to have an evolution-3.1.x available on updates
        (or wherever) in the near future
      * if not, is there any simple way to get the versions on koji to
        install or build on my system?

Thanks - jon
