Oh lordy don't get me started. Versions of Evolution included in the RHEL/CentOS had problems like: - on a slow (PIII-733) computer, if you moved too fast with cut/paste, the cut/paste buffer would not get properly loaded with the desired data. - you couldn't "Edit as New Message" in previous versions. You can as of v2.2.1, but only if you originated the email. - before v2.2, you couldn't select/copy text in an inbound, read email and then paste it into an outgoing message. - spam filtering is poor, even when you've got it dialed all the way up to use some of the famous realtime spam lists - wow...download of pop email messages is slow... Nevertheless...I'm using Evolution to type this - it was the reason I went to SuSE 9.3, knowing that Novell had bought Ximian. As free competition to Office/Outlook, nothing beats it!
