A couple of more things: I can provoke "no echo" behavior reliably by starting to compose a message in "HTML" mode and then switching to "Plain Text". In fact, simply clicking on the "HTML/Plain Text" dropdown menu without changing mode can cause this. While evolution is in a "no echo" state, it responds to mouse clicks OK, but to nothing from the keyboard. Evolution was started from a console, and has reported no errors (a very unusual situation). Any ideas on how to debug? The situation is do bad that I may have to switch mail readers on short notice. jon
