Evolution 2.25.2
Evolution is a perfect email/calendar/PIM that had taken the world of Linux by storm a few years ago. The program has been called an ‘Outlook replacement’ by every tech site. Evolution played a major role in allowing the Linux desktop to move into the enterprise by being able to connect to Microsoft Exchange Server and schedule/accept Microsoft Outlook Meetings.
There are a few things that this package helps with that differs from the ‘official’ Evolution release. Here’s a small list:
- this package contains an installer and not just a bunch of zip files of Evolution and its dependencies that the user is supposed to figure out and put together
- this package does not cause an MS-DOS Shell window to be open during the entire time that Evolution is being used
- this package sets the environment paths automatically, which again makes things manageable for you.
