Anyone know what happened to the Gnome/GTK calendar program which used cal as a backend and why it's not installed with Fedora? Perhaps it was called gcal or gcalendar, I will investigate... Hum, is there a cal server in which a user can sync their calendar files from laptop to desktop? Evolution... Sorry, I don't use Evolution. I do not want to download my mail and the imap setup in Evolution isn't pretty with all the folders in the left pane. I see no reason to use Evolution for just a pim and when using Evolution as my email client, it does not allow you to customize all the headers like mutt. thanks, jay
