<title>Using the Summary</title>

The Ximian Evolution Summary can show you what you need to know
quickly. It will show you your tasks for that day, how many
emails are waiting for you, and much more.

To begin using your Summary, click on the <guilabel>Shortcut
Bar</guilabel> or <guilabel>Summary</guilabel> at the top of the

<title>Using the Summary through an HTTP Proxy</title>
<para>
If you use an HTTP proxy, <application>Ximian
Evolution</application> must be able to find it through the
<systemitem>gnome-vfs</systemitem> subsystem before it can
access news and weather from the Internet. This is also
the case if you wish to load remote images into HTML mail
message. You can tell the GNOME Virtual File System about
your HTTP proxy in one of two ways:
