I see. However, the accounts are on the same machine. My fiancee and I am sharing the same box, so only one can be logged in at one time. So, it should be workable in this setup then. I tried killing wombat after exiting Evo but still the same thing happens. Or rather doesn't. A full restart is required to sync the file between the different Evo-instances. Mayhaps I need to kill all Evo related processes after logging out? Then I could put that in an account rc file? /M. -- Martin Skjoldebrand http://www.skjoldebrand.org _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
