Sebastien, your comment made me laugh. Linux *is* for power users. My grandmother or parents or even sister (who is on myspace all day long) would not use Linux. Anyone using gedit is most likely a power user as well because if they were just a dumb user typing a paper for school or a letter to a

Damnit. I just setup Jaunty 9.04 on my brand new Dell E6500 (which BTW is THE best notebook I've ever seen or owned -- fully rocks and is very well supported in XP and Ubuntu!). I too am switching away from XP/Vista/7/etc. and was REALLY looking forward to this. Email and specifically Outlook 2003

I too am experiencing this. It's quite annoying. I'm using Ubuntu 8.10 with all current updates. I have one 'exchange' email account and one 'imaps'. I've tried to kill evolution and restart, but it never restarts. The only way I've figured out how to get evolution working again is to logout
