Really! I leave the Evo background processes going nearly all the time (i.e. I quit evo by clicking on the 'x' icon in the icon bar of the window) and it doesn't filter mails after it has quit. This is using IMAP though - don't know about Exchange - wouldn't touch it with a barge pole. _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
