Creating lists is just as 'click-consuming'.
What exactly do you mean? I dont follow. You mean when you compose a message? What do categories have to do with it? Do you mean other contact folders? You dont have to manually click on anything anyway, you can also type. > Is the answer here just something which I have overlooked, or is it > rather that these are features which have not yet been implemented?

Solutions? Well oddly enough, its not called eudora for a reason. Its likely that what you want can be done (or will be able to be done at some point), but there's nothing to say it will ever be done in an identical manner to eudora (actually it is pretty unlikely it will be, since none of us have used it). _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
