Description Ryan Eatmon 2001-09-06 13:42:19 UTC
Evolution is great.  One of the first mail programs
that can support both IMAP and POP at the same 
time.

I'm trying to get it setup for use at  home and 
at work.  When I'm at work, I can't see 
my home mail servers due to the firewall, and at 
home, work is hidden behind said firewall.  What 
would be nice would be a way to specify at 
startup a profile to use.  Let me define the 
name of the profile, and then under the Edit 
Profile specfy the Enable/Disable status for 
all of the mail accounts I have setup.  Also, 
this is a good place to specify HTTP proxy 
information so that the Summary page would work.

Of course, if someone does not create any profiles,
then don't ask them to choose one at startup...

yourself.
