Re: [Evolution] Evolution problem

[Stephen Liu <satimis icare com hk>]

Hi guenther, Rodrigo, Mark and others,

I suceeded upgrade evolution 1.0.8 to ver 1.4.3 with command line

# wget -q -O - http://go.ximian.com |sh

It went through without problem.  All email boxes remain intact.

Lot of thanks for your advice.

B.Regards
Stephen
