[newbie] 9.2 and Evolution
Hello... Last night, I formatted my hard drive and installed my new copy of MDK 9.2. I am wondering why my evolution kept not closing properly, I had to go to Konsole, and do killall evolution to kill this window. When I re-open that application, I get all of my mail back that I have done deleted already. What can i do to remedy this situation? Thanks! YPK Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
