In case anyone was wondering, I did the upgrade to Fedora 8 and none of
the problems I've complained about recently have gone away, to wit:

* Frequent freezes in the UI while composing messages.
* Other freezes while Evo contacts servers -- it doesn't seem to be
multithreaded in any meaningful sense.
* Complete non-funcionality of spam filtering (Bogofilter), which used
to work well and now doesn't work at all.

Caveats: 1) this is an upgrade, not a reinstall. It's not impossible
that some of these problems are due to this. 2) I'll be wiping my
Bogofilter database and starting again, just to see what happens.
