Re: [Evolution] survey - how many are using ev against ms-exchange/imap?

[Rubin Bennett <rbennett completeconnection com>]

I've been using Evo since 0.8 on my IMAP (RH7) server.  I experience
(more and more occasional) crashes, usually on Evo start.  I've got ~100
folders, with roughly 3500 messages stored in them.  0.8 crashed a lot
(daily at least).  Evo 0.9 crashed a little less (usually < 1/day but
sometimes more). Evo 0.10 has only crashed a couple times since I've
upgraded and it almost always seems to correspond to when I have Evo
logged in to my server from more than one client at a time.  My guess is
that files aren't getting locked right or something, so Evo fights with
itself and loses.  And crashes.

But overall, I've found Evolution to be a beautiful, stable mailer.  No
crash on compose, no crash on send, etc.

Thanks all you Ximian folks (again) for a fine piece of software!
Looking forward to hookin up my Visor (but not intrepid enough to
attempt compiling in Pilot conduits yet).
