Can't speak for Canon however, Lexmark has excellent Unix/Linux support.
Support is limited to their high end printers, which you will need to
shell out the big bucks for though ;-)

I know the above, by having worked in Lexmark's Unix/Linux technical
support dept. here in Lexington ;-) This BTW, is Lexmark International's
headquarters.

It's summertime now. No yard sales in the area you live in? ~three weeks
ago, I picked up an hp psc 2210 all-in-one at a yard sale for $5. Works
flawlessly with hplip :-) Goodwill stores are another good source for $5

Just tried this a few times with, opensuse 10.2/Evolution 2.8.2/Gnome
desktop.
Destination folder does not highlight, however, I did note the
destination folder is surrounded by a rectangular dotted box. YMMV ;-)

I resolved the speed issue (for pop server) by, unchecking "Check
incoming mail for junk" in mail preferences. Don't know if this works
for Exchange server but, for pop server, Evolution is as fast (if not
faster) than Thunderbird {^_^}
