Public bug reported:
And 3 of 2) I use a laptop computer, as you can tell
from the extra data. Other computers also use a sleep mode.
Every time I wake the computer evolution reports, paraphrasing---
"HORROR HORROR HORROR I CANNOT CONNECT TO THE INTERNET". The cause:
evolution is so pushy about updating mail that it cannot wait for the
wireless to do its job and connect to the internet. You CAN fix or
reduce this by checking that if time exceeds the update interval by a
half hour or more then wait an extra minute before trying to use the internet.
In general, this is a bigger problem and can distinguish linux from Microsoft
products.
Have you ever been to a conference where you/they try to set up a "power point
presentation" so you turn on the conference room computer and you need fast
access to your network file system but you don't get it because oh, the virus
database has to update, and oh, windows needs to report home for updates.
These are much higher priority than what the user actually wants. Well, I've
attended/presented a lot of meetings like that. It sucks. It wastes peoples'
time.
