I don't get that one. :/

What does Novell got to do with it? Right, Novell bought Ximian. So
what? The developers are the same, Evolution sure is still Open Source.
Even more, Novell open source'd the connector, which was not free
before.

Maybe a typo, and you meant to say "buy it from Novell"? That's not
true. Evolution is Open Source, you do not need to buy it. Have a look
at the Evolution projects website [1]. You get all the sources there.

Please, if this isn't what you where about, tell us again. We will try
to help you.

If there are no RPM packages for RH9, you can build Evolution from
source. Or switch to a more recent distro. There are a couple distros
out there, that ship Evolution 2.0...
