Unfortunately, it has poor integration with desktop :( Do you think the iTunes/GMail GUI would work for Evolution users? This sounds nice for existing users of gmail using evolution. Though Opera has on lovely future , automatic creation of virtual folders based on mailing-list, contact names, attachment, ... etc. For Outlook user migrating to evolution, user inertia kicks in . People would have to re-learn . vfolders are powerful, but then, 99% of what i use vfolder is for Opera's vfolder functionality Have you tried out using vertical view in evolution ? View-Preview-Vertical view It's just like in Lotus Notes! Cool!!!

A bit off topic. But I saw some mocku ps at planet.gnome.org for an UI for Evolution 3. Are there any official UI work going on for Evolution 3? Hugs, Louise ___ Evolution-hackers mailing list Evolution-hackers@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers

If you are looking for a radically different UI closer to GMail, do checkout Opera's M2 mail client. Do note, it does not support many of the features of evolution .

The ability to attach notes to a email was rather interesting . On my wish-list . Outlook has this feature, and was rather useful to me atleast I have heard of people working on alternate frontends to evolution-data-server ( backend ) to replace evolution with mulitple different apps suitable for embedded platform ( http://pimlico-project.org/index.html ) I though it was someone from this mailinglist that had posted them?

But then, I would prefer if a EPlugin can be worked out in place of the message list. More plug-able views.
