Hi all,

I am becoming very fond of the Evolution email client. Am I alone here? It seems to do everything Thunderbird does, and some things
better.

What I think is a drag:

1. The dependency list. I'm certain this alone keeps many folks from ever trying out Evolution. However, if you use GNOME, you
should consider looking at Evolution.



I used to like evolution, but then they changed something with the way rules were processed during an upgrade and it made a mess of my local folders. I don't remember exactly what was different, but I couldn't make it do what I needed at the time. I moved back to Mozilla and then Thunderbird and really haven't looked at it since.

Just recently, I found some odities with my Thunderbird upgrade (of course it's a cvs snap so I can't really complain). Importing everything again from archives solved my issues. I think I might give EVO a try agian some time soon. But all of the above is really off of the threads topic and probably more of a problem between the keyboard and chair anyway. The real reason I use thunderbird is that it's built and ready to go shortly after X completes so I can use it to ask questions while building gnome (obviously that wasn't the case for this build).
