Update on Evolution on Mandrake 8.1 ...

Installing the packages individually works!

Start by attempting to install the Ximian Evolution rpm from their FTP
server, and track down the dependencies - all you need to do is update
the dependent packages ...

good luck ...

Evolution: Outlook Killer for Linux/Unix

Maybe that headline is a bit presumptuous, but the free Evolution
software suite is certainly a worthy Unix competitor for Microsoft's
reigning (and vulnerable) Outlook mail client. Evolution is an
integrated e-mail, calendar, task, and contact management suite for
Linux and SunOS. The slick GUI-oriented package boasts support for an
impressive array of standards, including synchronization with the
PalmOS. Ximian, the open source developer of Evolution, will shortly
offer a module that will allow the package to integrate with Microsoft's
popular groupware Exchange server. This means that Linux boxes will be
able to share mailing lists, calendars, and other groupware features
with typical Windows-based corporate networks. Overall, Evolution looks
like a functional and impressive package. It will not replace pine or
mutt in the hearts and minds of hardcore Unix e-mail users, but it's a
perfect solution for desktop users who cut their! teeth on Microsoft
technology.
