Title: Re: [Evolution] Very annoying(!) shorts hangs while typing

Hi,

I seem to remember two possible thing in /etc/hosts that can help this....

1. Add your hostname to the loopback line :-

127.0.0.1 localhost <add hostname here>

mine is :-

127.0.0.1 loopback pc-phands

2.  Make sure there are no blank lines in /etc/hosts.

I think #1 is the solution, and that #2 was related to something else, but I can't find the original mails.
