The first + time you run the program, it will create a directory called + evolution in your home directory, where it + will keep all your Evolution-related + files. Then, it will offer to help you set up mail accounts and + import data from other applications. + + + The first screen welcomes you to the assistant. It is estimated that + configuring your mail will take 2 to 5 minutes and importing mail will + take 1 to 2 minutes. + + + + Step 1 of 4 + + The Identity window is the first of four steps in the + assistant.

You're probably switching from another program and will want + access to your email from your old program. It's for exactly these + situations that Evolution includes an import + feature. + + + Evolution can import the following types of + files: + + + VCard (.vcf, gcrd) + + + The most common addressbook format. + + + + + + Outlook Express 4 (.mbx) + + + Email file format used by Outlook Express 4. + + + + + + MBox (mbox) + + + The email box format used by Netscape, Evolution, + Eudora, and many other email clients. + + + + + + + + Outlook 2000 + + Outlook 2000 uses a proprietary format that + Evolution cannot import directly. + To import files from Outlook 2000, you will need to boot to + Windows, import the files into Mozilla mail, then reboot and + import from Mozilla. Please see the FAQ for more + information. + + + + + Ask your system administrator if you aren't sure which you use. + + + + Exporting Files From Evolution + + Evolution uses standard file types for all its information, + so you should have no trouble taking your information + elsewhere if you want. + + + For mail, that's mbox, for calendar, + iCal, and for the address book, vCards + in a .db3 database. + + + + + + + What's What in Evolution + + Now that you've gotten the first-run configuration out of the + way, you're ready to get down to work. Here's a quick + explanation of what's going on in your main + Evolution window. + + +
+ The Evolution Main Window + + Inbox + + + +
+ + + + Menubar + + + + The Menubar gives you access to nearly all the + features that can be found in Evolution. + + + + + Toolbar + + + + The Toolbar gives you fast and easy access to the + most used features in each component. + + + + + Shortcut Bar + + + + The Shortcut Bar lets you go to your favorite + components with the click of a click of a button. + + + + + Status Bar + + + + Periodically, Evolution will need to quietly + display a message, or tell you the progress of a task. This most + often happens when you're checking or sending email. These progress + queues are shown here, in the Status Bar. + + + + + Search Bar + + + + The Search Bar lets you search through your email + with precision so you can easily find what you're looking for. + + + + + The Shortcut Bar + + Evolution's most important job is + to give you access to your information and help you use it + quickly. One way it does that is through the + shortcut bar, the column on the left + hand side of the main window. The large buttons with names + like Inbox and + Contacts are the shortcuts, and you can + select different groups of shortcuts by clicking the + rectangular group buttons. + + + Take a look at the Shortcut Bar + The shortcut buttons in that category are: + + + + My Evolution + + + Start your day here. My Evolution + gives you a quick summary of new or important messages, + daily appointments and urgent tasks. You can customize + its appearance and content, and use it to access + Evolution services. + + + + + + Inbox + + + Click the Inbox button to start + reading your mail. Your Inbox is also where you can + access Evolution's tools to filter, sort, organize, and + search your mail. + + + + + + Calendar + + + The Calendar can store your appointments and To do lists + for you. Connected to a network, you can use it to keep + a group of people on schedule and up to date. + + + + + + Tasks + + + A full-size view of your calendar's task pad. + + + + + + Contacts + + + The Contact Manager holds your addresses, phone numbers, + and contact information. Like calendar information, + contact data can be synchronized with hand-held devices + and shared over a network. + + + + + + + + + + + Folders and The Folder Bar + + The folder bar is a more comprehensive + way to view the information you've stored with + Evolution. It displays all your + appointments, address cards, and email in a tree that's a lot + like a file + tree— it starts small at the top, and branches + downwards. On most computers, there will be three or four + folders at the base. First is the Local + folder, which holds all the Evolution + data that's stored on your computer. After that are + Other Contacts, LDAP contact directories stored on a + network, followed by any IMAP mail folders you may have + available to you over your network. Lastly, there are + Virtual Folders, discussed in , + + + + A typical Local folder contains the following folders: + + + + My Evolution, a quick summary to help you do + your tasks. + + + + + Calendar, for appointments and + event listings. + + + + + Contacts, for address cards. + + + + + Drafts, for messages you started and didn't finish. + + + + + Inbox, for incoming mail. + + + + + + Outbox, for messages you have written + but not yet sent. This will be empty unless you use + Evolution while offline. + + + + + + Sent, for sent mail. + + + + + + Trash, a virtual folder view of all + the messages you have marked for deletion but not yet + expunged. Note that + once you have expunged a message, it + is permanently deleted. + + + + + + + Navigating without the Folder Bar + + You don't need the folder bar or the shortcut bar to move + around the main window. You can use Tab to + switch from one part of the window to another. When you hide the folder + bar, + there is a menu on the left side of the window just below the toolbar + to move about the folder tree, even with the folder and + shortcut bars hidden. + + + + + If you get any serious amount of mail, you'll want more folders + than just your Inbox. + To create a new folder: + + + + Select + File + New + Folder + + Shift + Ctrl + E + . + + + + + Select the name of the folder in the Folder + Name field. + + + + + Select the folder type. The available options are. + + + + + Calendar + + + + + Contacts + + + + + Mail + + + + + Mail Storage + + + + + My Evolution + + + + + Tasks + + + + + vTrash + + + + + + + + + Select the folder for the new folder to go in. + + + + + + + Subfolders + + Evolution can also manage subfolders, + subfolders are folders inside of folders. This works well if + you want to try to separate your home folders from your work + folders, or if you like to keep very organized. + + + + + + Folders Have Limits + + Calendars must go in calendar folders, mail in mail + folders, and contacts in contact folders. + + + + + Right-clicking will bring up a menu for just about anything + in GNOME, and Evolution is no + exception. If you right-click on a folder, you'll have a + menu with the following options: + + View, to view the folder. + Open in New Window, to see it in a new Evolution window. + Move, to move the folder to another location. + Copy, to duplicate the folder. + Delete, to delete the folder and all its contents. + Rename, to change its name. + Create New Folder, to create another folder in the same location. + Add to Shortcut Bar, to add the folder to your shortcut bar. + Properties, to view or change the folder properties. + + + + + + You can also rearrange folders and messages by dragging and + dropping them. + + + + + + + + Any time new information arrives in a mail folder, that folder label + is displayed in bold text, along with the number of new messages in + that folder inside of paranthesis. + + + + + + The Menu Bar + + The menu bar's contents will always + provide all the possible actions for any given view of your + data. That means that, depending on the context, menu bar items + will change. If you're looking at your Inbox, most of the menu + items will relate to mail; some will relate to other components + of Evolution and some, especially + those in the File Menu will relate to the + application as a whole. The contents of the menu bar are + described in . + + + + + File + + + Anything even related to a file or to the operations + of the application generally falls under this + menu: creating things, saving them to disk, + printing them, and quitting the program itself. + + + + + + Edit + + The Edit menu holds + useful tools that help you edit text and move it around. + + + + + View + + This menu lets you decide how Evolution + should look. Some of the features control the appearance of + Evolution as a whole, and others + the way a particular kind of information appears. + + + + + Actions + + Holds actions which maybe applied to a message. Normally, + if there is only one target for the action — for + example, replying to a message — you can find it in + the Actions menu. + + + + + + Tools + + Tools for configuring, changing, and + setting up preferences go here. For mail, that means things like + Mail Configuration and the + Virtual Folder Editor. For the + Calendar and the Contact + Manager, it's color, network, and layout + configuration. + + + + + Help + + Select among these items to open the + Help Browser + and read the Evolution manual. + + + + + + + Once you've familiarized yourself with the main + window you can start doing things with it. We'll + start with My Evolution, the summary of + everything that's going on. + + + + + + -- cgit v1.2.3
