Question Evolution & Gnome on FC6 as alternative to Windows.


I'm new to Gnome, but when I installed FC6 on my desktop PC I thought I should try it out. Mostly I find it OK to work with, and I have all the usual stuff I had been using with KDE, but instead of Thunderbird, I thought I'd try out Evolution. I have potential clients who would be interested in using it as alternative to Outlook, which is one of the main reasons they don't want to move from Windows to Linux. All the other desktop apps are there, but as some say, the "live" in Outlook.

So my question is, are there any useful user groups, forums, etc. for Evolution users? I've looked about, and there are mailing lists, but they are not for the sort of client I have. Something like LQ would be ideal, as it is so easy to use.

Here is a link to get you started, there may be more.

You can install and run Evolution under KDE. You do need to install some base Gnome stuff, I have been using it for several years under various releases of KDE.
