Re: [Evolution] open

[Gottfried <jeffrey g123 de>]

Hi all,

let me make my problem more precise. Evolution works fine. It is in my 
setting that something went wrong and all of a sudden it does not open 
any more.

I installed evolution on a different PC. restored an older back-up and 
one or two times it loaded fine and then again, it did not want to open 
again.

I am not interested in configuring evolution with a different email. The 
reason is: I use evolution for my business emails and thunderbird for my 
private emails. I am not mentioning thunderbird as a problem, so no need 
to comment on that further. It is just to give the background that I am 
using different email clients for different reasons. Clawsmail is my 
security email, which is so restricted that it is only used for a 
certain group of people and absolute not public.

Could it be a problem though, that evolution, thunderbird and clawsmail 
in one system don't like each other? or may just two of them.

The worst side of the problem is that I don't find warnings or comments 
or anything indicating any error. It just starts and hangs there. The 
same thing happened on Linux mint, but then I would simply restart the 
whole system and evolution would just start again. Because linux mint, 
(and please this is only to mention the background) uses only an older 
version of evolution, whatever good reason they might have for it, I 
installed fedora in order to be able to use a more update version.

My backup is about 4.2 GB big (just emails), is that getting to the core 
of the problem?

:-)

greetings to you all.
