Thanks Tony!

IIRC it took a while for you to get there though :)

While we're on warm fuzzies, there was a champion quote about Evolution
in a recent interview with a guy from the Opera board:

"Freedom is very empowering. I am using Windows on one machine and Linux
on the other and I use Open Office on both of them -- without any
compatibility problems. Ximian evolution is excellent and it has some
features that Outlook does not have. When you use it you feel the
freedom."
