- GNOME preferences tool and start the <guilabel>File
- Associations</guilabel> tool. There, look under
- <guilabel>Internet Services</guilabel>, select
- <guilabel>Electronic mail transmission
- (mailto)</guilabel>, and select
- <guilabel>Evolution</guilabel> from the drop-down
- list.

- <guilabel>Email Client</guilabel>. Click the
