Known problem, fixed in 1.0.1 next week, workaround can be easily found on bugzilla. Basically it should only affect users who have an old evolution directory from the beta stage. Exit evo, in a terminal "killev". Then "mkdir ~/evolution/private; chmod 600 ~/evolution/private". Start Evo, done. > Four, I've had to re-set up my accounts 3 times because it crashed and > does not remember the setup. It seems you have a problem with your install. Which Evo do you use?

They explicitly haven't copied MS's security probs, Outlook's broken quoting, Outlooks troubles to thread mail.
