Evolution just doesn't seem ready for prime time, at least on
x86_64 boxes like I have. It is by far the most unstable of my
Fedora Core 5 applications -- it quits unexpectedly or stops
responding at least once an email session, and often several times.
The address book is too difficult to use -- for instance it won't
autocomplete email addresses, and often an address you thought you
added to the address book is lost in the bit bucket. I notice it
takes way too long to download email -- longer than Mozilla Mail,
Thunderbird, Outlook or Outlook Express.
I guess I'll try Thunderbird 1.5.0.5 for a couple of weeks and see
if it is any improvement. I tried it in the early, pre-1.0 versions
and after several weeks it arbitrarily munched all my folders,
leaving about half the contents of each one "invisible". I hope
this version is an improvement.
