Help with Evolution and PPTP
I am using SUSE 9.0 and Evolution 1.4.6. Every time I try to send an email, Evolution hangs when ai start typing the email address. I get about 3 letters typed and then the system hangs for a few minutes. Eventually, it unlocks and I can go back to composing and sending my message. I am also using pptp-php-gtk to open a VPN to my work. I have noticied that if the VPN is not started, Evolution has no problems. Nothing hangs. The problems occur when I have the VPN running. I have disabled all of my directory servers but that made no difference.
I know I probably need to upgrade Evolution. What is the latest, most stable release? And can you give me steps on how to upgrade it? I am a complete newbie at software installation and I am scared to death I am going to screw something up permanently.
Any help and specific information anyone can give me would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
