--bajzpZikUji1w+G9 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable So I get called to this user's desk at a new company I'm doing some work for. It seems that for the last two weeks, he's been firing up his Evolution and wondering why no email is visible, even though when he goes to OWA he can see and manipulate his email (as normally as you can when using Firefox with OWA, but that's another story). So after ten minutes of messing around with this, I turn the preview pane off -- and presto, he got his list of email back! Seems that with Evolution, you can grab the preview pane and pull it up to the top of the window, completely covering the list of emails in your mailbox. Aaaand when you first fire up Evolution, it does not select an email to display for you -- meaning that you get a blank frame. After I'd stopped beating my head against a wall, I went and tried the same trick with Outlook. Microsoft gets many, many things wrong -- but you cannot cover up the top three lines of the email list with the preview pane. I'll just repeat that the user had been sitting there for TWO WEEKS wondering why he had no email. Kill. Me. --=20 /\oo/\ / /()\ \ David Mackintosh |=20 dave@xxxxxx.xxx | http://www.xdroop.com --bajzpZikUji1w+G9 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFFtixLcwUBd0wDJQQRAoMZAJ0eFUNkUldbOH4Ox+6ggxvwISfsRQCfU6Es oy7k3pF2iGEhdHF+AVF9OF8= =y3E2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --bajzpZikUji1w+G9--
