Re: Wow, Evolution left me with eggs in my face
Hi,
I use Evolution since over 10 years and I never get a problem. On other
site, a customer that just would have windoofs calls me up two to three
times a week because he has any trouble with posting.
If there is any one, who is not in order to use evolution, this guy
should use windoofs for his choice and do not bring up such a shit on
this list.
