Did you run the account setup as root? Don't do that. Never run Evolution as root. In fact it's a good idea never to run any GUI application as root. If that's not what you did, then check you have write permission in your home directory and the places Evolution uses (e.g. ~/.local/share/evolution and ~/.config/evolution). poc _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list [email protected] To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
