Well I know this is probably noise, but I got tired of 20 second lockups
on my laptop while RHEL-3 version of evolution would do various lookups
of folders and such. I decided to try something different and got the
thunderbird from fedora.us and recompiled it (just in case). After
getting my email back on the server, and building all my filters back..
I havent really looked back at evolution. Thunderbird does not have all
the gizmos but it doesnt seem to freeze the entire system with I/O.
Having it look more like firefox also gives a cleaner desktop look. So
if there is ever a debate about which graphical mail client.. I like
thunderbird (and I really really like Enigmail).
