Spell Checking

Spell checking needs enchant and any dictionary of the group hunspell-en, myspell-en or aspell-en (replace "en" by your language code).

Next restart Evolution and select under Edit > Settings > Editor Settings > Spell Checking the languages you use. To have the composer automatically check your spelling while you type, select Check Spelling While I Type. You can set the color for misspelled words.

Problems with some folders?

Sometimes, there are problems with some folders, such as that the trash bin is not emptied any more. Then close Evolution, in ~/.cache/evolution/ remove file folders.db, restart Evolution. Evolution will automatically create a new folders.db.

Mail Notification

see EvolutionMailNotification for different ways to enable mail notification (probably obsolete since DebianSqueeze).

Security

see EvolutionSecurity for signing and encrypting with GnuPG and S/MIME
