Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the report-those-bugs-people dept.

savaget writes "Evolution 0.99 (Release Candidate 1) is out! "Yes, you read that right: the release candidate for Evolution 1.0 hit the wires this evening. After two years of hard work and more than 700 thousand lines of code written, the sleepless hackers at Ximian are finally getting to the long-awaited 1.0 release of Evolution, the GNOME groupware suite."" One of the most important projects in the open source world today. Best of luck to the monkey boys @ Ximian squashing any last minute arrivals.

  1. Converting from Kmail? by bomek · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I tried to export my mail from KMail to evolution but not all emails are there.

    Kmail put all mails into different files corresponding to folder in ~/Mail in mbox format. So, i "cat" every files into one big file and i tell evolution it's my mailbox. The problem is, why my file MailingList is empty? In kmail, it's a folder that contains more folders but where the hell are those emails?

    Folder Forums and MailingList are both folders that contains more folders. But where are the mails that those folders contains?

    Apples and oranges. Blackbox is just a window manager, so basically you prefer plain old X without a "Desktop Environment" like those offered by Gnome and KDE.

    So do I, but I get tired of explaining the difference, that's left as an exercise for the reader...

    Check out this quote from a Ximian employee's website about the attack on the World Trade Center:

    "The attack ... was not cowardly nor senseless ... "

    Great work on Evolution Ximian, now if you could only hire some employees who have a clue.
