Yeah, right. I know for a fact that these Evolution data server bits
will access data when you least expect it. I just haven't looked
recently to see what particular data is used.

Then I'm even more surprised that you don't seem to know the difference
between Evolution and Evolution-Data-Server. The original topic was
about mail cache and making sure Evolution is not running, while you
posted about unrelated Evolution-Data-Server daemons (plus Evolution-
Data-Server has no background daemons for mail parts anyway, AFAIK).

previous paragraph of this message. :)
