Just my own suggestions, but I set my "Mark messages as read after..." option to 0 seconds (immediate), and don't have any problems.
I'm a Gentoo user as well, and found the constant bug-buddy crashes in 2.10 unbearable. I decided to switch evolution to the Gentoo test branch so I could get 2.12, and have been much happier. If you're not a Gentoo "genius" (I'm certainly not), just add these lines to /etc/portage/package.keywords: gnome-extra/evolution-data-server ~x86 gnome-extra/evolution-exchange ~x86 mail-client/evolution ~x86 gnome-extra/gtkhtml ~x86 gnome-extra/evolution-webcal ~x86 ...assuming you use the Exchange backend. Then do an emerge to install it. I'm not a fan of mixing stable & test packages, but this seems safe enough, since you're only pulling evolution (and gtkhtml) from the testing branch. -Chris On Tue, 2007-10-30 at 09:22 -0700, Tom Brown wrote: > Hi, > > I am using evo 2.10.3 on gentoo.
