I'll volunteer that I haven't looked at Evolution in at least one snapshot - primarily because I've been looking at pre-releases of Nautilus, and the two don't play nicely (they aren't yet tracking compatible releases of oaf, for one). Is anyone at Ximian considering that the current Evolution file structure for mailboxes makes it very difficult to swap out MUAs. For example, as I type this I'm 3000 miles away from my machine - accessing it via SSH. I'm using mutt at the moment, but when I get back to the console I could use Balsa without any complications. Last time I looked at Evo this wasn't possible. I tried setting up the Evo mail hierarchy as a bunch of hard/sym links - but it didn't work. I don't want to over-react, but it seems that Evo should do everything it can to play friendly - to do otherwise is very, well, Microsoft. Also - does Evo (or will it) understand Maildir format mailboxes? -- Dan Berger [dberger ix netcom com] http://home.ix.netcom.com/~dberger Nolite te bastardes carborundorum "If you can't explain it to an 8-year-old, you don't understand it" --Albert Einstein A982 E6B1 CB2F 7A49 843A 9297 DA73 4371 1F54 8D0C
