That was my reasoning too. I'd be surprised if i was a bandwith problem, as I have VDSL here and at least regarding mail clients I have not encountered any issues so far . Yesterday I started Evolution via the commandline with evolution --force-online. This morning by chance I looked at the terminal again and saw this output: pascal@debian-sid:~$ evolution --force-online (evolution:11714): evolution-shell-CRITICAL **: shell_settings_pspec_for_key: assertion `schema_name != NULL' failed (evolution:11714): camel-imap-provider-WARNING **: Unkown summary version (evolution:11714): evolution-mail-WARNING **: Sie müssen online arbeiten, um diesen Vorgang abzuschließen #####You have to work online in order to complete the task##### evolution:11714): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_render_frame_gap: assertion `xy1_gap <= width' failed #####This may be due to me computer not really recognizing my monitor, as it seems to thinks it was about twice the horizontal size, it's a 22' flat panel monitor.##### -- ______________________________________________________________ Pascal Bernhard Schwalbacher Straße 7 12161 Berlin Germany Phone: +49 (0)30 32 66 58 00
