Just installed 2.28.1, under Karmic Koala.(Ubuntu 9.10) Thought I had the Contacts files brought over in good order, but there are several individual ones missing, and *all* of the Contact Lists are completely hashed. None are usable. And when I attempted to create a new Contacts List tonight, it gave me a completely uninformative error message and refused to file the new list.
When I tried to enter an individual contact just now, it gave me the same error box. Is there a trick under 2.28.1 to making the Contacts work? I've looked through the docs, and so far have not found any warnings about this area. Mine is not a complicated installation; I do not have multiple address books, I am not connecting to any sort of exchange server or LDAP, and there are no other users on my system. About the most I have ever needed to do with Contacts, besides the basic address book of individuals, is maintain a dozen or so Lists ranging from 5 to 15 names each, of small groupings that I need to mail to now and then. Evo apparently wants me to have to re-enter every single one of those from scratch. BTW I still have not found out what Evo did to an entire Inbox of several hundred messages, 23 of them unread, that just disappeared yesterday. I'm beginning to wonder if I should be using it at all at this rate. Thanks, Brewster -- *********************************************************************** W.
