From: Paul E Condon on 21 May 2010 22:10 I'm looking at Evolution as a GUI MUA to supplement Mutt I'm running Squeeze on Intel hardware - nothing exotic. I go through the initial setup dialog - no problem I'm about to start investigating how it works when I notice my computer is running really slowly. I look carefully at the Evolution window and it seems that Evolution is scanning everything under "/". This will take a long time (100GB HD and pretty near full). Question: What is Evolution looking for? and Is there a way that I can tell it where that is ? So it doesn't look in all the wrong places. -- Paul E Condon pecondon(a)mesanetworks.net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
