Evolution: E-Mail and
Calendaring
Evolution™ makes the tasks of storing, organizing, and retrieving your personal infor-
mation easy, so you can work and communicate more effectively with others. It's a
highly evolved groupware program, an integral part of the Internet-connected desktop.
Evolution can help you work in a group by handling e-mail, addresses, and other contact
information, and one or more calendars. It can do that on one or several computers,
connected directly or over a network, for one person or for large groups.
With Evolution, you can accomplish your most common daily tasks quickly. For exam-
ple, it takes only one or two clicks to enter appointment or contact information sent to
you by e-mail, or to send e-mail to a contact or appointment. People who get lots of e-
mail will appreciate advanced features like search folders, which let you save searches
as though they were ordinary e-mail folders.
This chapter introduces you to Evolution and helps you get started using it. For more
details, refer to the Evolution documentation.
