What specific Outlook features are you finding missing from Evolution ?..It does Contacts Tasks and Calendars (the Calendar also integrates nicely with the Gnome desktops clock)
IMO it is not *as* good as Outlook but I just know several people on the list would disagree. It will even talk to Exchange should you wish it too.
Oh, no. We've had this discussion before. I'll acknowledge it might be a fine program, running stand-alone but the Connector plugin into Exchange is *awful* to use. Even when I managed to get it running consistently (tho, extremely slowly), it seemed to delight in holding on to all the appointment reminders and then giving them all in a row, long after the meeting had started. *shiver*
If you have to use Exchange, far better to just put up with the web interface (or run outlook under a VM).
