Etc., etc. Evolution is very close to an MS Outlook clone, so anybody that has used outlook will feel familiar with Evolution. Personally, I rather dislike the email client side of evolution, so I've gone elsewhere for my PIM needs. I've landed on Korganizer, part of the KDE PIM group. There is a project out there "kontact" that is an evolution like all-in-one application to bundle kmail, korganizer, knotes, and kde address book. I've been using it for a while and it's rather nice, if not slightly unstable. There are many choices out there for calendaring needs, just have to find one that fits best. -- Jesse Keating RHCE MCSE http://geek.j2solutions.net Mondo DevTeam (http://www.microwerks.net/~hugo/) Was I helpful?
