You want to be able to logoff with evolution running and when you login again you want all the unread e-mail to still be unread and I assume that you want deleted messages to have disappeared, Well it is clear this is not how evolution works and I for one don't want it work that way. I find Evolution in F7 better than it has ever been. Its spam removal is first rate where before it was poor. Anyone who doesn't like evolution should stop using it. -- ======================================================================= Every man takes the limits of his own field of vision for the limits of the world. -- Schopenhauer ======================================================================= Aaron Konstam telephone: (210) 656-0355 e-mail: akonstam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
