When using my fresh account and brand new Gnome desktop I double click on a
day in the calendar of Gnome panel's clock applet (which launches an
"evolution -c calendar" process in the background), a window is presented
where I cannot proceed without setting up a mailbox.

I want to use a nice handful calendar utility in gnome panel, I really don't
care if it uses evolution in turn or not, but I want to use it only to store
some calendar notes. I don't want to send/receive mails with it, I don't
have any mailboxes that could be configured here, since I either use webmail
or ssh to a remote box and run mutt there with access to local mailbox files.

So I believe evolution's calendar should be perfectly usable without the need
to specify e-mail settings there.
