This is the one I currently use: http://www.neurologic.se/misc/GNOME_GtkHTML_Editor-emacs.xml I think that is actually the default gtkhtml one. > On new mail the second time, is the value of gconftool-2 -g > /desktop/gnome/interface/gtk_key_theme Emacs or it is reset to Default? The gnome/gtk settings doesn't change. It is still set to Emacs and it only it is only evolution, which is affected.

Thanks. Yes, I know. I haven't bothered much about it, I intended to do someth about the general key settings later. It was only when the most basic keys ^A,^F,^B,^P,^N,^E,^K,^Y stopped working in evolution after my upgrade to 2.2.1.1 it became serious. The general key binding issue for gtk applications need to be fixed I think. I can't use e.g. thunderbird of the same reason. I also suggest that an application should be able to start a custom specified editing client, like a full emacs client, which you can do when using pine for instance, that is convenient.
