Nice..!

This certainly looks promising for the future and might push me to
rawhide a little sooner than normal.

Now, if we could just get a first class message composer for Evolution
that lets you easily write text, rich text, or HTML messages, and allows
full editing control of fonts, colors, formatting, etc. as appropriate
for each.

Evo might actually become a decent mail and calendaring client by
then...

Cheers,
