:-)  Yeah, it's been broken for a while now -- the last version which ran
for me was 0.5.1; we're up to 0.9 now, right?

Anyway, last word was that we need to wait for the gnome 1.4 update to go
in -- there are some fixes to gnomevfs which ought to get it to run.

Now, as far as the worthiness of the program, personally, I would say that
yes, it is worth trying; 0.5.1 was a really nice mail client.

In the meantime, I found a way to get mutt to display all the HTML mail I
get, and I'm using that; I consider evolution to kinda be a graphical mutt.
