Thank you for trying, but in the end, it was easier to just install
Thunderbird and the Lightning extension.  This was the 3rd serious issue I
had in 4 months of trying out Evolution for the first time.  Many great
features in Evo, and I really wanted it to work because of how well it
integrates with gnome, but I had more trouble with it in 4 months than in
the previous 4 years of using Thunderbird.

I'll return to check it out periodically to see how it has improved.

Cheers!
