I can't answer your questions for Evo 1.0.8; it is now very much obsolete compared to the current release, 1.2.1; I suggest you upgrade. I'll try to answer your questions; the answers may vary slightly or not work at all for 1.0.8; I forget some of what has changed between versions.

When you are editing the settings for an individual mail account, you can select "maildir-format mail directories" in the "Server Type" setting, under the tab labeled "Receiving Mail". > Where doet is store mails by default ? When Evolution downloads mail into a local directory, they are stored in ~/evolution/local or ~/evolution/mail > 2.Can I make use of True Type fonts? Default fonts are ugly! You can choose fonts via Tools->Settings->Font Preferences. In 1.0.8, I believe it's under Tools->Options. Note that in 1.0.8 you must restart Evolution for these changes to work (I'm not sure you need to restart with 1.2.1). > 3.How can make Evolution pop up a small alert box whenever new message > arrives (just like outlook does)? > I am using Evolution 1.0.8 on RH8.0 Upgrading to 1.2.1 will allow you to have Evolution beep or play your choice of sound when new mail arrives. I don't know of any way to pop up an alert box, although it may be possible via filters and shell scripts (again, only in 1.2.x).
