I would also not call it a bug... just an issue :) jmf -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

From those threads, it seems that Evolution is looking to Network Manager and, if the interface isn't managed, Evolution assumes there is no network.
