1) I now get frequent "error storing folders", "error generating
message list"
2) It's so slow. It is always "Storing folder", taking almost minutes
to complete. Its on average 5-8x slower
downloading, storing and viewing messages.
3) Its very buggy. When new messages arrive, they no longer show up in
the folder I'm viewing.


You are not kidding, F12 Evolution 2.28.3

Pile of crud.. I use it because I need MAPI (or prefer it I guess).
But I can't edit a distribution list without it crashing. It crashes a
few times a day when loading in large qty of mail and I select to view
or try to filter or something.

Email from google, comes in with unknown encoding so I have to select
view and select the encoding so I don't get the ?.. Exchange users
send calendar events and evolution says this says it's a calender
event but I don't believe it. Get an email with large amount of listed
text (directory listing of files that have not changed) and I can't
view it, evolution screen is gray. I have to have another unix user
forward that mail to me (and I receive it fine).

So maybe evolution is puuurfect but the mapi connector hates me, I
don't know, but there are so many jokes around the office regarding my
email client and how I can't forward simple html emails without it
puking all over or that I can't edit distribution lists that I'm
responsible for.

Sorry but it's horrible in Fedora (standard yum builds)
