Evolution Unsupported

Evolution has caused some problems after moving the home directory. If you have problems, in particular if you used a local folder before you moved. (Most users had their email folders at the IT department I believe.) Try the following:

- exit evolution (it has probably created an empty .evolution folder)
- move away any evolution or .evolution folder in the root of your home directory at the IT department.
- in your home directory at the IT department, mv the informatikk.%user/.evolution (ie. the .evolution folder from your home directory at Informatics) up one level into the root of your home directory at the IT department. %user=your user name the IT department.
- start evolution again
- if this worked, you can delete the folders you moved in the 2nd step above, else:

Get in touch with http://brita.uib.no/ if this did not work. The IT deaprtment has little expertise in Evolution, so they very likely will move you to Thunderbird as email reader. I recommed you accept this.

Users of other email software most likely have their mail folders at the IT department already. If not, procedure is basically the same as above, but the paths are different.
