[Evolution] Bug

[Rob Cambra <rcambra amesbury com>]

Hi,

I represent a company with 600+ end users.  We are actively seeking replacements for many Microsoft technologies such as Outlook/Exchange and MS Office.  We are currently testing OpenOffice.org and Evolution with select users and the IT Staff.

The biggest complaint we see with Evolution after one month of use is the apparent inability of Evolution to properly handle HTML-based e-mail with Internet content.  For instance, when a user receives an HTML message with graphics and other content fetched from Internet locations, the reading pane (lower right pane) freezes.  At this point, you can't use the reading pane anymore and Evolution can't be closed out.  The only option to return Evolution to normal functionality is to log off the user.

We've seen this behavior on Ubuntu 7.10 using Evolution as an Exchange client.  This is meant as constructive feedback because we want your technology to succeed.

Best regards,

--
