As jeff noted in another reply, this is to create alarms without evo running. Also in gnome things like the clock use e-d-s to provide calendar data and the contact applet to provide quick search for contacts. This happens all the time for apps, for instance gconf is started by most gnome apps. > Even when I looked at the recent bugs fixed list I couldn't believe that > Evolution had, until the bug was fixed, not kept emails on a POP server > when told to do that. Among a huge list of other bugs. That was a transient development version bug that occurred during unstable development in 2.1.x. It worked fine in 1.4, 2.0 and now in 2.1.6. -JP -- JP Rosevear <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Novell, Inc. _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
