Lanny, I must admit to liking Evolution. Have been using it for a month or so now. Started with the Evolution that came with the RH8 distribution, which I did find rather cumbersome. But since putting on 1.2 have found the speed and so on much better. Coming from a Windows background having used Outlook for so long, am used to having the calender, tasks, and mail all in one place. Still a couple of things I long for. One being delivery and read receipts. Miss that a lot. Going to Mozilla mail would be good for that. But the question then is could I get my Evolution mail into Mozilla, so all mail is in one place rather than spread across two mail platforms. I'm really getting into Linux now. After a couple of months playing am getting used to installing extra software. Am installing Quanta at the moment, a web page design tool. If it does what it says it'll be great for building web pages. The only other thing I've not been able to fully succeed in, is being able to play Windows Media player asp & asx format videos and sound files, from web sites. Thanks for your help. Neil.
