1.0 is a lot better, and the problem you were having with the trash can be
fixed. there is a setting in there that lets you remove the mail or mark for
removal. I have been using Evolution since it came out, bugs and all.
Overall I say I like it and recommend it. You also have to figure I migrated
from windows and Outlook, Linux only yusers may not like it. If you like
Outlook, you will like evolution. There are a lot of nice features like just
right click on an e-mail and choose create a filter for it and it gives you
choices on how you want to filter it. I must stop babbling now, been up all
night with delayed flights to get back home, so if this does not make sense,
sorry.

I use this mail client.  I not quite sure how I like it though.  It
looks nice, has a lot of different bits that I like, but it isn't quite
what I want in a mail client.    When you get mail in, it doesn't list
the new emails together. Even if you click the column with the date and
time, I still get emails spread around.  Another thing I don't like is
when you select an email and click on the trash can, it only marks that
email for deletion.  You, then, have to go in and "Purge" the emails to
delete them.

I have only have used this client for about a week, AND my version is
only .13.  I have seen that 1.0 is out there, and it may be better.

If all of my rants are fixable somewhere in the settings, PLEASE let me
know!!

I have used evolution and find it to be extremely similar to Outlook.
It is a good, solid product which can do Pop3 or IMap, and you don't
have to worry about those damned scripted virii which affect that
"other" OS.  Peace, Dennis in Victoria
