Description Alexander van Loon 2013-01-26 11:50:53 UTC 
By default Evolution uses the address cards view for address books. Widescreen monitors are most common now today and with those the list view seems to be a lot more useful however. Wouldn't it be a better idea to make that the default instead?

Thanks for a  bug report. I'm WontFix-ing this, the address card can eventually show more contacts than the list view, because it grows horizontally, which is good for the wide screens.
