Re: [Evolution] Updating to newest Evolution mail version

[Daniel Helfenberger <daniel helfenberger gmx ch>]

Hi Andre

Thank you for your quick answer.
With your help I could install the newest stable version of Evolution
Mail (3.36).
After the Installation I had the new and the old version (3.28) on my
Computer, so I had to deinstall the old version.

Kind regards, Daniel
