       <application>Evolution</application> email is like other email
       programs in all the ways you would hope:
     <itemizedlist>
       <listitem>
     <para>
       It can sort and organize your mail in a wide variety of ways with
       folders, searches, and filters.
     </para>
       </listitem>
       <listitem>
     <para>
      It can send and receive mail in HTML or as plain text, and
      supports file attachments.
     </para>
       </listitem>
       <listitem>
     <para>
       It supports multiple mail sources, including IMAP, POP3,
       and local <filename>mbox</filename> files.
     </para>
       </listitem>
     </itemizedlist>
    </para>
    <para>
      However, <application>Evolution</application> has some important
      differences.  First, it's built to handle very large amounts of
      mail without slowing down or crashing.  Both the <link
      linkend="usage-mail-organize-filters">filtering</link> and <link
      linkend="usage-mail-organize-search">searching</link> functions
      were built for speed and efficiency on gargantuan mail
      volumes. There's also the <application>Evolution</application>
      <link linkend="usage-mail-organize-vFolders">vFolder</link>, an
      advanced organizational feature not found in other mail clients.
      If you get a lot of mail, or if you keep every message you get
      in case you need to refer to it later, you'll find that feature
      especially useful.

      <title>Reading Mail</title>
      <para>
       You can start reading email by clicking
       <guibutton>Inbox</guibutton> in the shortcut bar.  By
       default, the <interface>Inbox</interface> is open when you
       start <application>Evolution</application>, and the first
       time you see your inbox, there's a message in it from Helix
       Code welcoming you to the application.
      </para>
      <para>
    The first time you open your
    <application>Evolution</application>
    <guilabel>Inbox</guilabel>, you will see a window like the one
    in <xref linkend="usage-mail-intro-fig">, with a message from
    Helix Code in the <interface>message list</interface>.  The
    message is displayed below that, in the <interface>view
    pane</interface>.  If you find the <interface>view
    pane</interface> too small, you can double-click on the
    message in the <interface>message list</interface> to have it
    open in a new window.  As is the case with folders, you can
    right-click on messages in the message list and get a menu of
    possible actions:

      <title>Multiple Recipients</title>
      <para>
        You can address your email in three different ways.  The
        <guilabel>To:</guilabel> field is for the primary
        recipients of the message you are going to send.  However,
        it is considered bad form to have more than a few email
        addresses in this section.

      <para>
        If you're writing to one person, but want to keep a third
        party up to date, you can use <guilabel>Cc:</guilabel>.
        Hearkening back to the dark ages when people used
        typewriters and there were no copy machines, "Cc" stands
        for "Carbon Copy."  Use it whenever you want to share a
        message you've written to someone else.
        <example>
          <title>Using the Cc: field</title>
          <para>
             When Susan sends an email to a client, she puts her
             co-worker, Tim, in the in the
             <guilabel>Cc:</guilabel> field, so that he know
             what's going on.  The client can see that Tim also
             received the message, and knows that he can talk to
             Tim about the message as well.
          </para>
        </example>
      </para>
      <para>
        If you have a large number of recipients, or if you want
        to send mail to several people without sharing the
        recipient list, you should use
        <guilabel>Bcc:</guilabel>. "Bcc" stands for "Blind Carbon
        Copy", and means that people you put in the
        <guilabel>Bcc:</guilabel> field get the message, but
        nobody else sees their email address.  They will still see
        the list of addresses from the <guilabel>To:</guilabel>
        and <guilabel>Cc:</guilabel> fields, though.

                  Regular expressions, often called "regex" for short,
                  are a powerful way of expressing complicated
                  statements using metacharacters or wildcard symbols.
                  For example, the statement
                  <userinput>fly*so[a|u]p</userinput> means "any
                  phrase beginning with 'fly' and ending in 'soup' or
                  'soap'", so you'd find both "fly in my soup" and
                  "fly in my soap."  There's not room here to go into

      Even if you only get a few email messages a day, you probably
      want to sort and organize them.  When you get a hundred a day
      and you want to refer to a message you received six weeks ago,
      you <emphasis>need</emphasis> to sort and organize them.
      Fortunately, <application>Evolution</application> has the tools
      to help you do it.

      <title>Getting Organized with Folders</title>
      <para>
    <application>Evolution</application> keeps mail, as well as
    address cards and calendars, in folders.  You start out with a
    few, like <guilabel>Inbox</guilabel>,
    <guilabel>Outbox</guilabel>, and <guilabel>Drafts</guilabel>,
    but you can create as many as you like.  Create new folders by
    selecting <guisubmenu>New</guisubmenu> and then
    <guimenuitem>Folder</guimenuitem> from the
    <guimenu>File</guimenu> menu.
    <application>Evolution</application> will as you for the name
    and the type of the folder, and will provide you with a folder
    tree so you can pick where it goes.
      </para>
      <para>
        When you click <guibutton>OK</guibutton>, your new folder will
    appear in the <interface>folder view</interface>.  You can
    then put messages in it by dragging and dropping them, or by
    using the <guibutton>Move</guibutton> button in the toolbar.
    If you create a filter with the <interface>filter

      <title>Searching for Messages</title>
      <para>
    Most mail clients can search through your messages for you,
    but <application>Evolution</application> does it faster.  You
    can search through just the message subjects, just the message
    body, or both body and subject.
      </para>
      <para>
    To start searching, enter a word or phrase in the text area
    right below the toolbar, and choose a search type:
    <variablelist>
      <varlistentry>
        <term><guilabel>Body or subject contains:</guilabel></term>
      <listitem>
          <para>
            This will search message subjects and the messages
            themselves for the word or phrase you've entered in
            the search field.
          </para>
        </listitem>

      <varlistentry>
        <term><guilabel>Body does not contain:</guilabel></term>
        <listitem>
          <para>
            This finds every email message that does not have the
            search text in the message body.  It will still show
            messages that have the search text in the subject
            line, if it is not also in the body.

      <title>Staying organized: Mail Filters in Evolution</title>
      <para>
    Filters sort your email for you as it arrives.  Most often,
    you'll want to have <application>Evolution</application> put
    mail into different folders, but you can have it do anything
    you like.  People who subscribe to multiple mailing lists, or
    who often need to refer to messages they have sent, find
    filters especially helpful to separate personal from
    list-related mail, but they're good for anybody who gets more
    than a few messages a day.  To create a filter, select
    <menuchoice>
    <guimenu>Tools</guimenu> <guimenuitem>Filter
         Assistant</guimenuitem> </menuchoice>. This will bring up a
         window which will guide you through filter creation.  The
         <interface>filter assistant</interface> is shown in <xref

      </figure>

      </para>

      <para> The <interface>filter assistant</interface> window
    contains a window listing rules, and an option to create a
    new rule.  To start filtering your mail, click
    <guibutton>Add</guibutton> to add a filtering rule.
    You'll decide when it should take place: 
      <itemizedlist>
        <listitem>
           <para>
         <guilabel>When mail arrives:</guilabel> Select
         this option to have messages filtered as they
         arrive.
           </para>
         </listitem>
         <listitem>
           <para>
         <guilabel>When mail is sent:</guilabel> Select
         this option to filter your outgoing mail.  You
         can use this feature to keep your

      </listitem>
    </itemizedlist>
      </para>
      
      <para>
       Then, the filter assistant will ask you which emails it should
       act upon.  You can set criteria based on message size, the
       sender, primary addressee or Cc: list, words in the subject or
       body of the message, or any combination of criteria.  Check the
       boxes next to each criterion you would like to use.
      </para>
      <para>
        Once you've decided which messages to filter, the assistant
        will ask you the sort of action you wish to take.  You can
        file, delete, or forward the message, and you can also have it
        be exempted from other filters which would otherwise have
        acted upon it.

    <sect2 id="usage-mail-organize-vFolders">
      <title>Getting Really Organized with Virtual Folders</title>
      <para>
    If filters aren't flexible enough for you, or you find
    yourself performing the same search again and again, consider
    a virtual folder. Virtual folders, or vFolders, are an
    advanced way of viewing your email messages within
    <application>Evolution</application>.  If you get a lot of
    mail or often forget where you put messages, vFolders can help
    you stay on top of things.
      </para>
      <para>
    A vFolder is really a hybrid of all the other organizational
    tools: it looks like a folder, it acts like a search, and you
    set it up like a filter.  Once you've set it up, you'll be
    able to open it and read the messages in it as though it were
    a normal mail folder.  It's not a folder, though, because when
    you open a vFolder, <application>Evolution</application>
    performs a search for you.  It's not a regular search, though,
    because you can build a vFolder with a very complicated set of
    criteria with multiple inclusions and exclusions, as though
    you were setting up a filter.
      </para>

<!-- potentially useful, but doesn't fit at the moment:
     <para>
       An important difference between a folder and a virtual folder
    is that a conventional folder actually contains messages, but
    a vFolder is a view of messages that may be in several
    different folders.  This means that while a message may fall
    into several vFolders, it can be in only one conventional
    folder.  Also, it means that you cannot remove a message from
    a vFolder unless you delete it, and you cannot add a message
    to a vFolder unless you change the vFolder's search criteria.
      </para>
-->

      <para>
    As messages that meet the vFolder criteria arrive or are
    deleted, <application>Evolution</application> will
    automatically place them in and and remove them from the
    vFolder contents list.  When you delete a message, it gets
    erased from the folder in which it actually exists, as well as
    any vFolders which include it.
      </para>
      <para>
    That's pretty complicated, but it can be useful. For example,
    if I have a folder for all the email from one person, and
    another folder for all the email on a given topic, I
    <emphasis>feel</emphasis> organized.  But when the person
    sends me mail about the topic, my whole email filing universe
    becomes chaotic, and I need vFolders to save the day for me.
      </para>
      <para>
    That sounds silly, but imagine a business trying to keep track
    of mail from hundreds of vendors and clients, or a university
    with overlapping and changing groups of faculty, staff,
    administrators and students.  The more mail you need to organize, the less
    you can afford the sort of confusion that stems from an
    organizational system that's not flexible enough.  vFolders
    make for better organization because they can accept
    overlapping groups in a way that regular folders and filing
    systems can't.
      </para>

      <example id="usage-mail-organize-vFolders-ex">
    <title>Using Folders, Searches, and vFolders</title>
    <para>
       To organize my mail box, I can set up a vFolder for emails
       from my friend Vince.  Then, whenever I want to see the
       messages Vince has sent me, I open the vFolder, and every
       message he's sent me shows up, no matter where I've
       actually filed it.  If I want, I can also create a vFolder
       containing any message from my list of co-workers which
       also has the name of the project in it.  That way, when
       Vince sends me mail about the project, I can see that
       message both in the "Vince" vFolder and in the "Project"
       vFolder.  That's because when I open up the "Vince" folder,
       I'm really performing a search for all the mail from Vince,
       and when I open the "Project" folder I'm really performing
       a search for all the mail about the project.

    <!--  (INSERT SCREENSHOT HERE: vFolders in action) -->

    </para>
      </example>
      <para>
     To create a vFolder, select <guimenuitem>VFolder
     Assistant</guimenuitem> from the <guimenu>Tools</guimenu>
     menu in the <interface>main window</interface>.  This
     will bring up a dialog box that looks suspiciously like
     the Filter Assistant (for more information on filters, see
     <xref linkend="usage-mail-organize-filters">), and which
     presents you with a list of vFolders you have previously
     created. If you have already created vFolders, you can
     click on them in the frame labelled <guilabel>Select Rule
     Type</guilabel>, and edit or remove them.  If you have
     not created any, there will be only one available option:
     click <guibutton>Add</guibutton> to add a new vFolder.
      </para>
      <para>
     You'll be prompted to create a filtering rule.  You can build
     your own from the ground up, or select one of several base
     rules to customize.  Your options are:
    <variablelist>
     <varlistentry>
        <term><guilabel>For matching messages:</guilabel></term>
        <listitem>
          <para>
            Choose this to create your own set of rules for the
            vFolder.  You may select one or more search criteria;
            the vFolder you create will contain messages that
            match all of them.
         </para>

        <listitem>
          <para>
         The remaining three rules are simpler.  Select this
         one to create a vFolder that will contain only
         messages from an address you enter.
         </para>
       </listitem>
      </varlistentry>
      <varlistentry>
        <term><guilabel>Messages to a certain address:</guilabel</term>
        <listitem>
          <para>
             Any messages sent directly to this address will be in
             the vFolder you create.  This vFolder is an absolute
             must for people with multiple email addresses.
          </para>
        </listitem>
      </varlistentry>
      <varlistentry>
        <term><guilabel>Messages with a given subject:</guilabel></term>
        <listitem>
          <para>
        Enter a subject, and the vFolder will contain messages
        with that subject.
