+ + + + + Ways of Looking at your Calendar + + You can view your calendar by the day, by the week, by the + month, or by the year.

You can set overlapping events, although + Evolution will warn you about + trying to do two things at once. You can also set event + reminders so that you don't forget about everything you've + just put into your calendar. Basically, it can handle almost + any schedule you throw at it. + + + Creating events + + While looking at the calendar, select New + Appointment from the + MENU, or press + KEYSYM. The New + Appointment dialog will appear.

Before + you click OK, (INSERT DESCRIPTION + HERE...). Evolution will + automatically send email to each person on the request + list, notifying of the time and date of the meeting you + have requested with them.
