I've done that. Just look in the lower left hand corner and there is an
icon that looks like two electrical plugs. If there is a red X between
them, then it's in offline mode. Just click on it, and the plugs will
close, putting you back into online mode, where you can send and receive
stuff. I've done that more times than I can count! Embarrassing,
especially after I raised hell on the list about evolution being
broke. :) Ric
