Mmmm. Been trying Evolution for a while, and, albeit somewhat slow on my
400 bogomips machine, it is quite stable compared to the other graphical
MUAs availabe on Debian 3.0, and support everything the other ones do
(except sane use of core memory :)). Though, what I found really neat,
is it support for the gnu privacy guard. I know I may sound like a
Microsoft Windows user, but for example, James's message showed a small
lock at the bottom. When I clicked on it, it downloaded the key, and
checked the message against it, showing me gnupg's output. Also, saved
the key here, of course.

I was using mutt before. But I just get too many email right now, some
of it HTML, and I also did want to dig trough procmail to filter all the
incoming stuff in mailboxes, and to also save the mails I send out.

Oh, Evolution also lets you store the mail you've been receiving, in
Qmail's maildir format. I really like that.

Just though you might want to know.
