RH RHEL3 here, Evo 1.4.5. I don't have this problem; if I had, I
wouldn't be using Evo at all. RedHat seems to be doing its own things
with Ximian stuff, since I never (well, apart from sometimes) get
trouble with the RedHat Evo. If I did, I'd be running something else as
an OS, like I did last time.

The thing is: There doesn't seem to be that many Ximian developers on
full time. Those that there are are busy developing new stuff. Bugs on
old stuff are old hat.

Now that Novell has taken over Ximian, maybe Evo will be better funded
and start employing thousands of talented (mainly *young* and
inexpensive developers :) Novell *could* take over the
Exchange/Domino/GroupWise market, given SuSE's punch. But in the mean
time, complaining to your OS vendor, rather than Ximian, might help ;)
