        WebKit renderer is (slowly) comming! :)

I hope so.  So far, I'm enjoying Evo and am beginning to prefer it over
Thunderbird.

        Ask on a Ubuntu list. This is not an Evolution problem.

Fair enough.  I didn't know that.

        Is it only when an email matches a search criterion?
        
Yes.  Correct.  If I remove the search folder, then everything works as
expected.

        I can only answer for myself, but I find Ubuntu has the feel of
        a "toy"
        operating system - as if it was designed for the hobbyist end of
        the
        market. I also dislike some of the fundamental design decisions.
        It has
        its place, and I'm not flaming people for using it - it's up to
        the
        individual and nothing is perfect.  I just personally prefer
        something
        that is much more suited to the environment I work in.
        
I'm a digital artist and ALMOST bought a Mac, but was converted to
Ubuntu when I saw its bling and security.  I'm no techie, so aesthetics
- combined with my powerful machine - appeal to me.  And a lot more
creatives are now using Ubuntu, as a result.  Which is a good thing. :-)

In conclusion, this may be an Ubuntu thing and not an Evo thing?
