The new way to do this is: evolution --force-shutdown or evolution-1.4 --force-shutdown depending on what the binary is called. > 2.

I cannot tell you how many times this feature saved > my sanity and countless hours of my time!!!!! The auto-recovery feature is there (I know from experience). It does not "fire up" when you create a new message, but rather when you start evolution. When you restart evolution it will immediately prompt you to recover messages that had been auto saved. You can find any autosaved files, if any, by "ls ~/.evolution*" Lonnie Borntreger _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
