Is this the evolution from <http://www.dipconsultants.com/evolution/> or <http://blogs.gnome.org/sragavan/2008/10/03/evolution-224-windows-port/>? There seem to have been multiple ports over time. > Evolution version 2.26.2-2 running on Vista Ultimate SP 2 Message is > Evolution.exe failed to start, windows will now close the application.

I haven't had much luck with the Evos-for-Windows - I hope the upcoming Bonobo, etc... free builds may be more portable. But I don't know anything. It really might be more useful for you to contact the people who did the port or to post on the Evolution-hackers list as Evo-on-Win32 isn't really mainstream.

Evolution is far more than a mail client - and other clients [like <shudder>ThunderBird</shudder>] fall very short in the other functionality [seriously: what crack head developed TB's address book? Gag!]. _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
