Think I might try reinstalling Evolution. </PRE> </BLOCKQUOTE> That's probably less likely to help. Do you use IMAP, or is your mail local? If it's on IMAP, then it might not be too much of a problem to simply blow away ~/.evolution and ~/.gconf/apps/evolution. If you have a lot of local mail, then you probably want to back that up, or you might try just blowing away ~/.gconf/apps/evolution (you might have to "killall gconfd-2" after that). mike <BLOCKQUOTE TYPE=CITE> <PRE> sigh nux </PRE> </BLOCKQUOTE> <TABLE CELLSPACING="0" CELLPADDING="0" WIDTH="100%"> <TR> <TD> -- Michael R Head <<A HREF="mailto:burner@suppressingfire.org">burner@suppressingfire.org</A>> GPG: http://www.suppressingfire.org/~burner/gpg.key.txt (ID 23A02B1F) </TD> </TR> </TABLE> </BODY> </HTML>
